The Difference Between Engineers and Engineers

Etsy has a very detailed way of looking career paths and levelling. The team that i found myself on was the structure data team, ripe with engineers. And so there was a lot of opportunities for me to see how architects work when it is on engineering. People understand what a data architect does because they literally own these tables full of data. So in a culture that is very much about ownership, engineers have very clear ownership. But product design actually has pretty clear ownership. They own the inner face, and sometimes they even build it, depending on who the product designer is. There's a lot to learn from engineers about how to support specialty through education of the rest of the company.
