It’s becoming more common. Staff and principal are fairly common roles and they’re well respected in the US. All the fancier roles like “Architect” have been merged into those now
- piva00 3y agoMy impression is that Staff and Principal are basically a different make-up on what Architect used to be. A bit less ivory tower dictators but still working in the role of overviewing larger systems, coming up with novel solutions (usually proof of concepts later developed into production by other teams), bridging technical gaps, and dictating broader guidelines on how the larger system should behave. Just an iteration on the Architect role to be a bit more hands-on.
