Although the Senior IC ladder is starting to become more defined, what being ‘staff’ or ‘principal’ is still varies greatly from company to company. And just like stepping into management, deciding to move from Senior to Staff or from Staff to Principal changes the day-to-day work and expectations placed on ICs. And so why aren’t more people talking about this shift, and what does leadership actually look like as Senior IC?
In this panel, we’ll discuss what being a Senior IC really means in the absence of matching technical ladders. We’ll consider core responsibilities, from engineering strategy to making technical decisions, and leading big projects – and our panelists will shed light on the kinds of work they do to help you navigate the Senior IC ladder.
