The article is titled The “Other Kind” of Staff SWE. Presumably the “first kind” is the definition to which you are referring
- erwincoumans 4y agoSure, I just wished the author/article would have spelled out/confirm the standard definition of 'staff swe' as step/level in the ladder before going into the 'other' meaning of 'staff swe' as being part of non-core product.
- adamgordonbell 4y agoLike this, from article footnotes: When talking about “staff” in this article, I do not mean the Staff software engineer role that is found at tech companies after senior. That is a different usage of the term
- erwincoumans 4y agoIndeed, like that but then in the main text instead of in a footnote, so it doesn't get overlooked. Anyway, I enjoyed your nice writing and congrats with the HN exposure!
