    This was my experience as well. It's completely up to management to recognize these kinds of engineers regardless of role name or leveling.

    Thank you for taking the time to write out this detailed feedback. I will have to think hard about how my resume may change, and in what ways. I may end up starting from scratch an…

    Thank you for the fresh set of eyes and the feedback. I think I have spent so much time staring at, reading, and revising this thing that I’ve become blind to issues like these.

    I agree with that assessment, but with the caveat that I think this mostly applies to new-grad hires. In my experience, people who brought outside experience into FAANG weren't nea…

    Thank you for this suggestion. I think it's infinitely more interesting than the meme-y, parroted 'grind leetcode' response to improve job prospects. And it can give you more direc…

    There are a few old-adage counterpoints here, such as: don't make your passion/hobby your job, have hobbies outside of your work, etc. But you also touch on something that has surf…
