Brain dump: In tech companies, I’ve found that what truly makes someone stand out isn’t just the experience they bring, but their aptitude and effort.
When teams operate at a large scale, the challenges and tools are constantly evolving. Those who thrive are often the ones with a strong drive to learn, adapt, and engage with complex problems, regardless of their previous job titles.
I’ve seen talented colleagues, sometimes new to the tech space, excel by embracing change and staying curious. In this industry, success is often less about how long you’ve been around and more about how you approach what’s next.
So, if you’re stepping into a new role at a scaled tech company: bring your curiosity, your commitment to problem-solving, and a collaborative spirit. It’s not just about where you’ve been. We all started somewhere else.
