We wrote the Software Engineering Handbook because most engineering advice is about technical background. Ours is about surviving everything else.
It covers:
- Surviving bad managers, layoffs, toxic teams
- Navigating promotions, negotiations, career changes
- Handling burnout, immigration, parenting, even death
- Setting boundaries, managing time, staying sane
- Building a life while growing in your a tech career.
No tutorials. No buzzwords. Just real-world survival and growth, written by engineers who’ve been through Amazon, Meta, Workday, TripAdvisor, and startups.
