The misunderstanding the author makes is that a Full Stack Engineer is a specialist in all roles. They're not. They're simply Intermediate to Senior in most.
I'd defer to a specialist in essentially every field, but if you require a broad range of work to be done without hiring a half-dozen people, I'm who you're looking for. The best title we have got that kind of experience is Full Stack.
(It's also a well-understood recruiting buzzword you can use to quickly indicate the work you want and the salary you expect.)
- robertAngst 8y agoI barely understand why you would have more than a few full stack engineers ever. The guy talked about having beautiful SCSS. At some point, you are talking about design and less about engineering. Full stack is a job to be taken on by a small team. Having a large team with lots of full stack makes 0 sense.
- icebraining 8y agoCSS might involve design, but it also involves engineering. Optimizing code size and rendering speed and fluidity are certainly engineering tasks.
