Im going to be starting as a new grad a company that is growing super quickly and my goal is to get to Senior as fast as possible.
I was able to meet with a few people who graduated 6 years ago and have spent their whole career at this company. They are now a Staff Engineer and a Senior Engineering Manager. Idk if I'll stay here for 6 years but I really want to get to Senior as quick as possible.
If anyone has any books that helped them get promoted I would love to hear about them!
Also this is probably not the intended purpose of the channel so let me know if I need to take this down

I think all of the Robert C Martin books are a good step for the development side of Senior Engineering
I’ve read Clean Architecture and planning on getting Clean Code
I think for the fastest promotion you need to be lucky with projects or very good at selling and validating your work with company vision
I’ve been exploring the promotion path too let me know if you find any good books

Currently reading Clean Architecture and I have to agree. I'll have to checkout Clean Code after though

I saw a tiktok dude say that one strategy he has used is anytime he comes across something he doesn't know about (whether in code or just in a meeting) he looks it up in Designing Data-Intensive Applications and reads all the sections on it
I just ordered the book but from what I could tell it looks like it has a pretty good glossary of tech/frameworks for things at scale

I recommend reading “designing data intensive applications” by Martin kleppman. I haven’t read the whole thing, but when I generally read a portion of a chapter, it gives some good info
