In this episode, Ope and I break down what it really takes to build strong technical skills as a software engineer. We go beyond just writing code and dive into how to deliberately sharpen your expertise by:
Building a portfolio of projects that showcase your abilitiesDeveloping taste in engineering and writing about what you learnSurrounding yourself with an environment that pushes you to grow (or creating one if it doesn’t exist)Seeking scale—working on problems that challenge youAsking the right people for problems to solve—and actually following throughAnd, of course, we emphasize something engineers often forget: taking care of yourself. Knowing when to disconnect and have fun is just as important as grinding through hard problems.
This episode is packed with practical insights for software engineers at any stage. Whether you're early in your career or looking to sharpen your edge, you'll walk away with actionable advice.
