From senior engineer to staff engineer

Who this is for

Senior engineers deciding how to grow beyond feature ownership.

What to cover

• Scope beyond one team
• Technical strategy
• Influence and adoption
• Written evidence and mechanisms

The useful result

A practical distinction between harder work and higher-leverage work.

Use the keyword as a starting point, then judge the work by whether it solves the reader's actual problem. A strong answer names the context, the decision, the closest alternative, the failure mode and the evidence that would change the recommendation.
