Staff Engineer: To be or not to be?

This blog post will discuss the question that plagues many engineers - whether or not to work towards becoming a staff engineer. I will be sharing my personal journey towards becoming a staff engineer at Brex. I will discuss the motivations behind my decision to pursue this career path, the challenges I faced, and the skills and experience I needed to develop to succeed. Through my own experience, I will provide insights into the roles and responsibilities of a staff engineer, the traits and competencies required to excel in this position, and the benefits and drawbacks of pursuing this career path. By the end of this post, you will hopefully have a clearer understanding of what it takes to become a staff engineer, and whether or not it's a goal worth pursuing for your own career.
