Leveling Up as an Engineer: Soft Skills & Self-Marketing

About This Contribution
I participated as a panelist in a professional panel discussion focused on career growth for engineers, with an emphasis on soft skills, self-marketing, and long-term professional development. The session brought together experienced engineers, founders, and community leaders to share real-world insights beyond technical expertise.
During the discussion, we explored how communication, personal branding, and intentional career positioning play a critical role in engineering success, especially in fast-moving, competitive environments. I contributed perspectives drawn from my experience as a Senior Frontend Developer, highlighting the importance of combining strong technical foundations with effective collaboration and user-focused thinking.
The event was held over two days and aimed at helping engineers better understand how to grow, adapt, and stand out at different stages of their careers.
