    Thank you, Dr. Tom. I am really thankful for explaining the roles of a Principal Engineer. I just got a job as Principal Engineer in the Data Analytics domain. I am excited about my new role.

    Great work Tom, thank you for sharing your insights. I think using yearly reviews for helping shape and tune Principal Engineers is way too infrequent, but right for setting up the framework. What's NEVER happened in my job is having expectations given from day 1, rather than wait until the next annual review - it would be interesting to collect contrasting data for this scenario too, or do you think that's irrelevant? Thoughts welcome! In my experience, expectations of what a Principal engineer varies from workplace to workplace too, and even from team to team within the same organisation! I can only commend you for taking the initiative by proposing to standardise these expectations. Thank you!

    Hi Gary, thanks for watching. You make a great point... when we have engineers leading engineers, all too often the most basic leadership principles are overlooked. Tom

    I am 5 years engineer. I'd say I'm senior level. I could be level 2 or 3 in a company. I reach staff level next.
