The more you learn, the more you grasp the massive quantity of knowledge that you don't have. You can't learn or improve if you think you know everything. I would say humility is the most important quality for an engineer to have if they want to be able to grow as an engineer. I've come across a small number of engineers that have lacked humility and acted as if they knew everything and they were a nightmare to work with. The first instinct they have when they approach most problems that they come across is that the issue can't possibly be caused by their code and you have to provide an unreasonable amount of evidence or a smoking gun to convince them to investigate their code. They design solutions as if they know the perfect way and they seem to lack empathy for users or others that may have to maintain that code.
