To succeed in this dynamic environment, it's crucial to embrace various principles and best practices that can elevate your performance and contribute to the overall success of the team:
1. Take Ownership
When facing production issues, the priority is clear – fixing the problem takes precedence. This proactive approach not only resolves immediate concerns but also fosters a sense of achievement and camaraderie within the team. By approaching problems with a sense of ownership and urgency, you contribute to a positive and efficient working environment. Suggest ideas and take the lead when implementing them.
2. The Art of Being "Lazy"
Being "lazy" in how you approach problem-solving isn't about avoiding work; it's about finding the most efficient, automated solutions. From product development to testing setups and toolchains, striving for automation streamlines processes and enhances productivity, unleashing the potential for innovative solutions. Don't waste time on manual effort, your time is important and we want you to use it wisely.
3. Engage with Team
Software development is a collaborative effort, and the ability to seek help when needed is crucial. Balancing individual problem-solving with resourceful collaboration not only accelerates progress but also supports a culture of shared learning and growth. If you are stuck with a problem and can't find a way to approach it, call for help. We don't expect you to know everything, but we expect you to seek assistance when needed. Our team is famous for being supportive and we strive for collaboration.
4. Deliver quality
Writing code is not just about functionality; it's about ensuring testability, scalability, and performance. From emphasizing readable and functional code to delivering great user interfaces, every aspect of software engineering demands attention to detail and empathy for end-users. Make sure your code is understandable by peers and users love it. The code is never bug-free, but your goal is to eliminate the risks of user disappointment.
5. Keep standards high
Show up to the meetings, voice your opinion if you have a better way to do something, ask questions, eliminate distractions during work hours, and be an example for others. We are deeply invested in your success and we expect the same from you.
6. Understand the problem
In a high-functioning team, the Product Managers are usually responsible for determining the "what and why" of a product, while Engineers are responsible for figuring out the "how" to build it. However, to ensure a successful outcome, it's important to demand validated requirements to avoid working on something that may not align with the needs and goals of the stakeholders. Demand validated requirements because it would be awful to be working on something that no one cares about.
7. Keep learning
As you grow as a professional, we are very interested in your growth. We've seen our junior engineers being transformed in lead engineers in a short amount of time. Technology is always changing and you need to change along with it. Continue to learn new things and never rest on your past accomplishments. Seek out new challenges that help you improve.
