Becoming a Distinguished Engineer
Notas do episódio
The title of distinguished engineer originated in large tech organisations – most notably IBM – 30 years ago. But why is the role gaining more attention now and what does it actually mean to be one?
In this episode, recorded live at Leeds Digital Festival, Martin Borrett, Distinguished Engineer at IBM, and Leena Sharma, a technology leader at Lloyds Banking Group join our host Dr Shini Somara to explore how deep technical expertise, leadership and communication skills are shaping the future of careers in tech.
Martin and Leena share personal career journeys, discuss the value of technical versus management career tracks, and highlight the importance of continuous learning and resilience in a rapidly evolving industry.
