Tomasz had an internship where for the entire first month other engineers trained him to become a junior frontline engineer. He highly recommends other companies to do the same because you can get some amazing engineers that you know are going to fit the company's needs. Another great advantage of training interns is that it levels up the senior engineers by giving them mentoring experience!But, what really is a senior engineer? Basically, a senior engineer isn't a person who programs more, faster, or better. They're a person who makes others better at what they do and a person who can solve problems.So how do you advance your career? Tomasz says that speaking at conferences had a major impact on his career. He strongly recommends that if somebody wants to start talking at conferences, to start at local meetups because one, you will get experience, and two, they're always looking for speakers.Transcript"What is a Senior Engineer with Tomasz Łakomy" TranscriptTomasz ŁakomyTwitterGithubDev.toWebsiteJoel HooksTwitterWebsite
