A curated handbook of resources (newsletters, books, courses, papers, podcasts, and communities) for software engineers aiming to reach senior level and beyond. It is an awesome-list style repository maintained by Jordan Cutler with an MIT license.

Use cases

  • find resources to grow from mid-level to senior software engineer
  • discover newsletters and podcasts about engineering career growth
  • find books and courses on system design and leadership
  • get recommendations for staying up-to-date as a software engineer
  • find communities for engineering career mentorship
  • prepare for a tech lead or senior engineer promotion

When to choose

  • you are a software engineer planning your career progression to senior or staff level
  • you want a single curated list of career-growth learning materials
  • you are looking for system design, leadership, or SRE learning resources

When to avoid

  • you need executable software, a library, or a tool rather than reading material
  • you want structured interactive training rather than links to external resources
  • you need resources for non-engineering careers
