@softwaredani: I'm done making excuses and finally leveling up as a software engineer. Trying to grow as a software engineer while working full-time means I have to be realistic. Some days it’s interview prep. Some days it’s side projects. Some days it’s learning something for my current job. I can’t do everything every day, so I’m choosing consistency over perfection. #SoftwareEngineer #levelup #NoExcuses #TechLife #SoftwareEngineering #CareerGrowth #CodingLife #WomenInTech #DayInMyLife #TechCareer #GrowthMindset #JuniorDeveloper #SeniorEngineer #9to5 #Motivation #SelfImprovement #DeveloperLife #FirstGeneration #TechTok #interviewprep
I see that you are already biohacking circadian cycles, so senior seems closer

Side projects are unfortunately crucial. Deploying it gives you a chance to learn some infra stuff

The industry needs to switch from interview prep to project showcase. The job complexity comes from teamwork and solving why prod isn’t working but acceptance env is fine 😂

As an entry level swe I’ve been saying I’m going to do these things forever, but this video is inspiring me to actually start. Do you have any resources you recommend for system design? Are you just using hello interview?

hey Dani, I’m currently building school core, it’s a framework that processes issues from a repo from a pedagogical lens. I’ve been a PERN stack engineer for 3 years and a music educator for 8+ and I see often times the way we need to interact with agents now should be building their environment. agents need tools, skills, resources context, etc very similar to the way students do. I’m on the search as well and I’d love to learn more about anything you might be building next, good luck 🍀

Honestly, anyone with 5+ years of experience in tech, is a software engineer. We have TPMs that ship code now where im at 🤷♂️

I’m lucky that I’m on a greenfield project now. Just got my L3 promotion so I’m being strategic on things I choose to work on to get me on my way to L4 (that’s where the RSUs are lol). But I’m also going to mentor college students this year to help with developing non-technical skills for the move to senior engineer.

it’s side project time, wanna do a small project every week? I actually found a convenient way to do all three is to start with 2, and then ask AI to do 1 for the project. You can also interview yourself and use 3 as well so it makes an entire workflow for you! good luck 😬👋🏽
