Hey, Anton here.

Being an Engineering Manager is HARD. There are so many things you have to juggle, and nobody prepares you for it.

I started my first engineering management role 7 years ago, and I was completely overwhelmed. on the surface, everything seemed ok, but I was barely keeping it together.

So I decided to do something about it. I've read tons of books, talked to tens of other team leaders, and improved.

In 2020 I started a new role as a developer, and in 3 years I got promoted twice to a director of engineering.

Now, I want to help other engineering managers, by sharing what worked for me (and what didn’t).
