With great agency comes responsibility – to yourself. Learn how to triage your projects and tasks into a structured to-do list.
When you first started out as a software engineer, your to-do list was influenced by outside factors. Perhaps you were assigned tickets, or maybe you had post-it notes on a wall, but one way or another, tasks would end up assigned to you by your manager. Your manager was the keeper of your to-do list, so you didn’t have to worry about it. As a staff+ engineer, however, the responsibility for your to-do list shifts from your manager to yourself.
