First you said a few years experience then you said Senior Engineer... so which one is it? I'd imagine by few you mean 1-5 years, is that enough to get Senior

  Yes. Corporate titles. JSE 0-1 year experience, SE 2-4, SSE 5-7 typically. There would be multiple SSEs on a team, a team 10-20 in size. So yes, SSE in 5 years is reasonable as a corporate title in multinational type companies. Above that would be a Team Lead (late 20s/early 30s). A manager would manage 2-4 team leads. A Director / AVP 2-4 Managers. Technical Leads (senior non managers - perhaps what you're thinking) would be dotted around as needed. But a lot depends on the product and business line. A business line with a simpler product would typically have everyone at 2-3 levels up the hierarchy above a business line with a simpler product.

    I strongly disagree about your estimate that Team Leads in Corporations are late 20s/early 30s. This may be in startups.
