The article focuses on engineering abilities, but strong engineers excel in areas outside just engineering. You don’t need to be some prodigy who invents the next great thing, you just need to be the person who can come up with a plan under pressure, know where things need to happen and make sure things can execute. The strongest engineers that I’ve met, even just on a programming level are fundamentally just better at planning and executing a plan than weaker engineers. They’re not necessarily better skilled at the actual coding aspects.
