My company has a very useful guide for the software engineer ladder, and one very interesting characteristic they look for (not mentioned here) is scope. Seniors are expected to have a bigger scope, not only technically (e.g. leading the development of a service), but in terms of reach. Senior developers influence teams other than their own, and drive collaboration.
