Being Staff Plus

For a long period of time the only path that organizations offered developers who wanted to grow their influence was the management track. In recent years organizations have begun to offer individual contributor roles beyond senior developer such as staff or principal engineer.

Staff Plus roles differ from senior engineering roles and require new skill sets to influence, guide and shape the engineering direction of an organization and often require the engineer to work independently.

In this presentation we will cover what you need to know about Staff Plus roles:

* Staff Plus Roles and Archetypes
* Moving Beyond Code
* Technical Leadership
* Work on What Matters

We will cover topics around influence without authority, determining where to spend your time, and how to help the engineering teams succeed.

We will finish with an exploration of how you move toward a Staff Plus role
