There is a huge difference between high performing senior engineers, and high performing junior engineers.
But lots and lots of senior engineers aren’t high performing. They’re still moderately more valuable than junior engineers, but not immensely so.
People calling themselves “senior engineer” are usually referring to years of experience, not to whether their management chain consisently sees them as high performing.

Not going to be a top performer for long. What I mean is that it is hard to give a number to a person. Sometimes they shine, sometimes they don't.
