Software Engineering Is Not a Walk in the Park

Ex-Google engineer, Tech Lead, explains what makes software engineering hard.

Every extraordinary programmer will need to master 5 unique skills. There is a lot more to being a software engineer than just knowing how to code up a white-boarding question or memorizing a few stupid algorithms and data structures. These are skills that schools don't teach and will take most people an entire career to finally get good at. Tech Lead outlines the requirements here, as well as all the complexities and hidden challenges of software engineering.
