I think the resolution to impostor syndrome is to recognize that you have more things to learn and to try to challenge yourself all the time, and also find a mentor so you can get feedback. If you have a good team or a good manager you should be able to get this kind of help. Your employer can only gain by you getting better, and this kind of motivation for self-improvement is the best kind of attitude to have. Even on the rare and off chance if it somehow turned out you don't have the skills people thought you did, if you have this kind of attitude, you should come out ok.
Also never be afraid of saying "I don't know" or "I don't understand". If someone is explaining something to you, and they mention a concept you aren't familiar with, have the courage to ask them to explain it to you. I have never been criticized for saying "I don't know." In fact it builds trust, credibility and confidence.
