#12Interesting idea. I've been thinking about this a lot lately. I love the full stack and want to pursue it as my post-grad career. That being said, it seems like full-stack people are only really valuable in situations in which their full-stack capabilities of wearing multiple hats is competitively needed. IMO, that only happens in the early stages of a startup or temporary resource constrained company (i.e. a project…
Good points. First off, thanks for checking out the site. You are absolutely correct that full-stack engineers are _not_ needed at organizations of every size and structure. They are, in my experience, in the highest demand in any organization that has a small to medium size technical team. The reality is that many teams of this size exist--there are far more small teams than their are large ones in the workforce. I…

So what do we call me? Stuffed-full-stack dev?

#19Hi Guys--I'm a co-founder at HeapSort. We just launched our MVP this week and we're looking for constructive feedback from the developer and startup communities. In the coming weeks we'll be launching a series of powerful resume building tools specifically for full stack engineers. It's not just another job board--we're going to totally change the way developers convey their skills to employers. We welcome any though…
Full-stack to many (more than not) means hardware, software, and the associated network setup, all in one person.

I'm a full stack dev that's built out distributed systems and has filled in for the role of "resident DBA" while still doing backend and frontend dev. Now I'm learning biomedical NLP. So what do we call me? Stuffed-full-stack dev? There's more to life than knowing Rails and Coffeescript.
