About the Book
Written by an Engineering lead who hires and trains Senior Developers, this concise guide walks you through what success looks like for the role of Senior Developer, and how you can upskill to get there!
---
While technical excellence is a must to become a Senior Developer, there are several other aspects of the role, such as **Leadership**, **Communication** and **Task Management** that often are overlooked. An inability to demonstrate these skills in your work and profile can mean either:
- not getting promoted to Senior Level, or
- not excelling in the role, if you do manage to obtain it
We'll explore these essential skills and the mindset required to succeed in this role. Through a series of short modules, we'll jump into these topics and also cover other essential pieces of the role; such as navigating conflict, communication with non-technical stakeholders, and how to stay current with new technology.
