SUMMARY:Thriving Early in Your Engineering Career: Lessons for the First Five Years
DESCRIPTION:The early years of an engineering career are often filled with questions—Am I focusing on the right things? What actually helps me move up the ladder? How do I position myself for long-term growth? \nIn this interactive\, podcast-style virtual session\, Deepika Sidana\, Senior Engineering Manager at American Express\, will be joined by Kamila Kalchakeeva\, Software Engineer at American Express\, for an open and candid conversation about thriving in the first five years of an engineering career. \nDrawing from 14 years of industry experience\, Deepika will share reflections on what she did right\, what she would approach differently\, and how early-career decisions compound over time as engineers progress into senior and leadership roles. Kamila will bring the perspective of an early-career engineer\, sharing the real challenges she is navigating today\, the questions she is asking\, and how she is thinking about growth and advancement. \nThrough a dynamic back-and-forth discussion\, this session bridges two career stages—offering attendees both seasoned insight and a current early-career viewpoint. Participants will gain practical guidance on building credibility\, increasing visibility\, and positioning themselves for the next level with clarity and intention. \nTweetShareShare0 Shares
