When a lot of people hear the word “consultant”, they think of someone who makes a lot of PowerPoint decks & wrangles spreadsheets - so what does it mean to be a consultant as a software engineer?

It’s not what you might think. Software engineers who are consultants not only drive high-level architectural decisions & provide training for their clients - they also build really awesome products. In this session, you will learn about the special role that software engineer consultants play in the companies they work with, what makes you successful as a consultant, & how you provide value at different levels of experience (consulting isn’t just for the most senior engineers). You’ll hear about some sample engagements, uncover what skills you might need to develop to get into the field, & much more.
