As you advance in your career, focus not just on the technical skills that get the job done, but also on great communication and collaboration skills, a high-agency mindset, and the ability to take ownership of a project and drive it to success. These are the skills you need to…
The great devs will deliver features Top devs deliver outcomes
These skills matter a lot more when the right people can actually see you use them. I’ve met engineers with great ownership and communication... but outside their company, nobody knows they exist. And that’s why their career stalls. If you want to reach the top, you need…
If you are a 10/10 on technical skills, and a 4/10 on communication, you are a 4/10. Good work just gets wasted if you can’t communicate it effectively.
High-agency is the multiplier. Two devs with identical technical skills will have vastly different impact based on whether they wait for instructions or proactively identify and solve problems. It's what separates senior engineers from staff+.
So true! The people who rise fastest aren’t just skilled, they take ownership and communicate like leaders.
Tech skills are the baseline, but soft skills are the multiplier. Without them, you're a genius stuck in a room. Ownership and communication are the actual levers.
The higher you rise, the less the job is about you and the more it's about enabling others.
What if reaching the top isn’t just about mastering skills, but about standing out through your unique ideas and perspective? Strong technical and collaboration skills matter, but memorable creativity and thoughtful risk-taking can set you apart in ways most advice overlooks.
The higher you go, the more your soft skills become your superpower. People who take initiative always stand out
Well said, soft skills and ownership often separate good performers from leaders.

My ultimate Skills in life is the skills to never be ina rush to make it quick
I couldn’t agree more, this is one area i need to really improve on.
This is it because at a certain stage, people know the technical parts of their jobs but it’s your personality and people’s skills that would stand you out and there are many “wonderful” people who would prick you from time to time. Emotional intelligence is 🔑
The real career unlock is when your impact comes from ownership and agency, not just your technical output.
