Welcome to The Lead Engineer Journal ๐ŸŽ‰

This blog is a collection of ideas, resources, learnings and work in progress coding challenges. I want to explore different aspects of leadership, software engineering and system design, and dedicate some time to write about career paths, books, mental health and productivity tips. My goal is to provide accessible and insightful content for leaders and engineers at all levels, from beginners to experienced professionals. Whether you're just starting on your career or looking to refine your skills, this blog is for you.

My expectations writing this blog

This blog is not only about sharing ideas and providing guidance, but mostly about seeking clarity on topics that I am currently reading or studying, refine leadership practices, review basic concepts on system design, describe my journey approaching coding challenges and express some insights from books that I am reading. As part of this journey I expect to improve my writing skills and use this as my personal learning space.

Topics that I will cover here

  1. Leadership: Explore different leadership practices and provide guidance to new leaders or engineers transitioning from individual contributors to Engineering Managers.

  2. System Design: Refine system design concepts, object-oriented design, consistency, scalability, performance and so on.

  3. Coding Challenges: Step-by-step guides approaching coding challenges, because the best way to improve as a software engineer is building new software and exploring different scenarios.

  4. Books: Review books that I am currently reading and provide insights

Stay tuned

Thank you for joining me on this journey, I hope you find my content valuable and look forward to sharing more insights with you in the future. Stay tuned for my upcoming articles!
