I've written a book titled Junior to Senior[0] that is soon to be published by Holloway. Now that I'm done with the majority of the writing for the book I'm shifting my focus to my blog to share all of my knowledge I've gained throughout my career. You can think of it as the advice I wish I had when I was working towards a promotion to a senior role.
I'll cover topics like:
1. Choosing a career path (IC vs. Manager, generalist vs. specialist)
2. Qualities of a senior engineer
3. How to deal with imposter feelings
4. Working with your manager
5. What to do when you make mistakes
6. How to ask good questions
7. How to read unfamiliar code
8. Adding value
9. Managing risk
10. Delivering results
11. How to communicate effectively
12. Work life balance
13. How to ask for a promotion to a senior role

- bag_boy 5y agoYour post about choosing a career path had a hard to read section - white text on a light background. Just an FYI. Looks like there was a link at the bottom of the text.
- dglass 5y agoThanks for pointing that out! Looks like I missed a couple CSS styles for the dark theme. I’ll make sure to get that fixed.
