Thank you for sharing your experience with being a tech lead! It's really helpful to see a detailed breakdown of the process. I highly related to all these as a tech lead myself. I wish you all good things in your journey :)
Hello, thank you very much for the feedback. Good to know that what I wrote made sense :D
Haha, it did. The role took me some getting used to as well, but you get better with time. :)
Thank you so much for sharing! This helped me alot to ease my newgrounds anxiety.
I'm a senior frontend dev who had no team for most of my years of experience, and just became a lead with 2 jr devs in my team, i gradually converted from senior 1 - as you have mentioned - to senior 2, and now I'm trying to balance between 2 and 3.
I'm glad my writing helped you!
Such a good article! I had a lot of feelings reading about your experience and could put myself in your shoes. I never became a true senior developer and today, as a team leader, I sometimes have this empty feeling inside.
Hey, as we say here in Brazil: muito obrigado! I have to tell you that it's a completely normal feeling and I'm sure many colleagues in the field share the same thing we feel.
I'm glad you mention the importance of soft skills. In any organization it is very challenging to steer the ship if there's miscommunication between various people. Software is especially difficult because we are constantly dealing with different layers of abstraction, which absolutely comes up when communicating/figuring out requirements between developers, marketing, design, etc.
Awesome article, really enjoyed it! It was insightful.
Thank you for sharing it.
This is great!
Mh in your conclusion I hoped that you will give a sneak peak about the next steps or what do with your insights.
So what should I do as a tech lead. Create a team that is in balance with those characters? Pairing the teaching senior with the code grunt and let them watch by the deadline guy?
Your article is great. I am eager to read more of that.
Yeah, good to know that you liked the article! These are good suggestions that can be taken to another part talking about how to manage everything you said. This is perhaps one of the most present challenges in the life of a tech lead.
Wow, I have really learnt a lot from you sir. And I wish you could be my Trainer.
Currently, I'm not a college graduate and honestly, communication is my challenge.. I try to code and deliver on time but.. I don't know how to present my projects in the midst of people.
That's my challenge...
So because of this. I am jobless..
Hey, the journey is a little difficult but with people by our side we can overcome it. Feel free to contact me using the contact details on my dev.to profile!
Ty for share your xp!
Actually I have a little doubt about my future inside programming. I'm communicative, I love to share my knowllege and I like to manager people, but I love to code xD
Thanks for sharing!
Hello @sampseiol1
Great article, thank you for sharing with others.
How do ensure that you are updated with new trends in your field, or does it even require being a PL.
Hi, great to know that you liked the post! The way I stay up to date on topics in the area is usually through connections or knowledge that is provided at three points: university, company and internet blogs. the important thing is that you filter what is interesting and what is best is an evolution of what you do.
