Senior Software Engineer Salary

✍️ There was a project I worked on that required me to put in long hours consistently for several weeks. At one point, I felt so burnt out that I struggled to stay focused and motivated. It was challenging to maintain a healthy work-life balance during that time, and I realized the importance of pacing myself and taking breaks to avoid exhaustion. It taught me to prioritize self-care and advocate for realistic workloads to prevent burnout in the future.

Software Engineer Salary

✍️ One time, I accidentally deleted a critical database table while trying to optimize a query. Thankfully, we had backups in place, so we were able to recover the data without much downtime. It was definitely a heart-pounding moment, and I learned the importance of double-checking commands before executing them, no matter how routine they may seem!

✍️ I spend a lot of time reviewing my team's pull requests and participating in sprint ceremonies, and I only get a few hours each week to write code. But the work/life balance is top notch and we get plenty of time off.
