How This Course Works

As a software engineer, you need to eventually grow into a tech lead to pursue more senior levels. However, it's much easier being a bad tech lead instead of a good tech lead - This course is here to help you be the latter. Here are the core parts of the lesson:

  • Your instructor Jocelin Ho walks you through her extensive 10+ year tech background as a Meta tech lead and the CTO/Cofounder of Cooby (Sequoia-backed startup), where she built engineering teams from scratch and mentored other tech leads

  • You'll understand if this course is a good fit for you

  • We walk you through the course objectives. By the end of the course, you will know:

    • 💡 The full definition of an effective tech lead

    • 💻 What technological skills tech leads must possess

    • 🙌 How tech leads demonstrate true leadership

    • ✅ Practical tips to start acting as a tech lead
