The Engineer's Playbook: Starting a New Role

INTENDED AUDIENCE:

• interested in a career in tech
• starting your first engineering role
• starting a new engineering role

THE DISCUSSION:
Starting a new role is never easy. There are a ton of ideas, new processes, people, and new technology to pick up. In addition, you may have also changed problem domains, which means you're having to learn about the problem we're trying to solve. That's a lot to take in, "drinking from the firehose", if you will. That being said, how do we control the flow? How do we optimize our learning to be effective in the short term and not need six months of ramp-up time?
