A documentation-based framework defining engineering career ladders (Developer, Tech Lead, Technical Program Manager, Engineering Manager) across levels 1-7, with radar charts visualizing expectations on five axes. It helps engineering managers plan career growth and have structured conversations with direct reports.
Use cases
- define engineering career ladders for my team
- compare tech lead vs engineering manager roles
- plan promotion criteria for software engineers
- visualize role expectations with radar charts
- prepare for career growth conversations with reports
- set expectations for senior engineer levels
When to choose
- you manage engineers and need a baseline career ladder to adapt
- you want a simple, chart-based way to discuss role expectations
- you need a common vocabulary for developer, tech lead, TPM, and manager tracks
When to avoid
- you need HR software or performance review tooling rather than a reference framework
- your organization requires fully customized ladders with no baseline
- you expect maintained software with releases and code
