What is expected of a 5a Senior Software Engineer at Uber compared to a 4? running meetings? mentoring? designing features? What does it say in promotion requirements?
Come to work at least.
Lead a small group of engineers and set the right technical direction for them at least in the context of some projects. Influence others’ work, beyond their own work.
As it was explained to me by an Uber recruiter. 5a is like a junior version of senior. Not a real senior but not a fresher either. 5b is senior for reals.
For your own sake please stay away from Uber. It’s a shitshow. Maybe if Thuan retires then a stronger Engineering culture will come up but right now Uber is shitty. I regret joining 1 years back.
Did you move to Uber or stayed at apple. Wondering how the move is working out ?
Wow.. How staff and senior members are different in LinkedIn?
This has a way of sticking in your head. Why did you have to make it rhyme?
