Senior to Staff positions at medium to large private or mid cap public companies expect little from their engineers :).

Definitely not 10x and I suck at leetcode style problems. I'm probably a 2xer who acts like a 1xer. That's the real secret. Don't overachieve.

You are actually the living proof there is a 5x to 10x difference between some programmers. Since you have 4.5 jobs.

Thanks for coming forward.

I guess technically the math works out that way :)

In my opinion I'm seriously mediocre as an engineer. Slightly above average at best. I'm just good at managing my time, which is more of a business/personal skill than any engineering skill.

sometimes i won't feel like starting a task for like 3 hrs into my workday, you must be a god at sticking to a schedule.

Series D companies above 1B valuation?

How did you make it to senior staff without leetcode? How many years YOE to get there?

I did a lot of leetcode when I first started. Nowadays, and especially in this market, it's not hard to find companies not doing any leetcode style interviews. If you have a decent GitHub profile and years of experience you can outright say in interviews that you won't be doing any leetcode style problems. It's an engineers market, take advantage of it!

How many years in a number?

Which kind of companies are you talking about? Lifestyle business or seed stage or Series A / B / C / D / E?

Nobody really looks at GitHub though. A/b tested it and only very few looked.

Do you have an email interested individuals can contact you on?

For my own sake I'm probably going to be completely anon, but you should check out the following site for a community of overemployed folks:

Could you make a protonmail address?

It is good to have a circle of non-public capable people.

Will be good if you can be contacted.
