Eh what? If that's how your "engineer" calendar looks like then your org has more serious problems than a spontaneous "30 min sync" popping up in your calendar.
What is a "senior engineer" anyway? Everybody beyond intern stage is called "senior" these days.

But now nobody hires medior or below anymore, so senior is the new entry level, followed by principal engineer, and "distinguished fellow engineer" is proposed as the real new senior title.
