Ben & Ryan Podcast - Episode 10: Developer Career Paths With Dan Short

By
Published in

It was such a pleasure to get to talk to long-time friend and colleague, Dan Short. He shares insights about his career transition from an Individual Contributor (IC) development role into an engineering management role. Which, as you can imagine, isn't always the easiest journey. He fell victim to what many management-curious engineers probably fall victim too: not fully committing to the "hard work" in the beginning. On the show, we talk about the common pitfalls of such a transition, myths around moving up the career ladder, and many fun tangents (you're welcome) along the way!

I believe in love. I believe in compassion. I believe in human rights. I believe that we can afford to give more of these gifts to the world around us because it costs us nothing to be decent and kind and understanding. And, I want you to know that when you land on this site, you are accepted for who you are, no matter how you identify, what truths you live, or whatever kind of goofy shit makes you feel alive! Rock on with your bad self!
