It's the whole system that forms the basis for the problem: management, engineers, PMs, Designers, everyone who touches the problem space. If you want to improve, you need to make sure each part of the system is aligned around the same goal. Sounds hokey, but it is the reality. That means, as well, that it's both your responsibility and others' responsibility at the same time. Sure, you shouldn't be "that engineer," but you should also realize the kinds of things in the system that make someone become "that engineer," or lead them to be "that engineer" in some situations, or on the positive end, how certain engineers avoid it altogether. Then try to reproduce those factors and spread them. The problem is never individual. It's never about a good coder or a bad coder or anything like that. There are always multiple internal and external factors.
