You'll Learn Proper Engineering Skills

Working at Big Tech companies offers a unique opportunity to develop strong engineering foundations by being immersed in mature processes, robust tools, and a culture of high standards.

  • Access to top-tier engineers and tooling: Employees are surrounded by highly skilled engineers and comprehensive internal tools that streamline development. Many of these tools address needs engineers didn’t even know they had until using them.
  • High-quality code review culture: Rigorous code reviews from experienced peers serve as a fast-track for learning. Early feedback can be intense but leads to rapid growth in code quality, scalability awareness, and best practices.
  • Exposure to mature engineering systems: Engineers learn the full lifecycle of software deployment with components like dogfooding, alpha/beta testing, stage rollouts, A/B testing, monitoring, and alerting, many of which are often missing or underdeveloped in smaller companies.
  • Longevity drives technical evolution: Companies like Meta and Google have evolved with the industry, migrating through major tech stack changes over decades. This adaptability teaches engineers how to future-proof their systems and processes.
  • Cultural emphasis on continuous learning: The engineering culture encourages innovation, resilience, and cross-pollination of ideas, making it ideal for those looking to grow as adaptable and forward-thinking software engineers.
