- munchbunny 7y ago“Individual Contributor”, as opposed to “Manager”. The term is often used in reference to the engineer career track where you don’t become a manager but instead focus on technical leadership, but more generally it refers to being a leaf on the org tree.
- Namrog84 7y agoIndividual contributor. In contrast to a lead, manager, or pm. The IC is usually the person who actually writes software/code. (The bulk of employees at a software company are ICs)
- HiFaraz 7y agoPM is typically an IC too unless they are directly managing others.
