A web software developer or senior web software developer is someone who has professional programming experience. They can be distinguished through his ability
write complex code
understand databases, application services, and application lifecycle development
mastery in building entire applications.
Most of a software development career will include several years of work as a senior web developer.
People who don't like the idea of management and who prefer to write code can spend many years or even their entire career as a senior web developer.
Computer science vs software engineering
Lead Software Engineer
For someone looking to take on additional responsibilities and a more challenging role, a Lead Software Engineer or Architect might be the right fit.
Lead Software Engineers supervise other engineers and programmers, and this role is seen as a mid-level management position. However, top software engineers still write code, but also collaborate with others to prioritize workflow and implement final decisions. They have years of experience in specific programming.
Technical architect
Technical architects still write code from time to time, however, they are primarily responsible for developing complex systems that other web developers will execute. The role of an architect is very technical.
Development Team Leader, Software Development Manager
As a development team leader or software development manager, your responsibility is to manage development teams, large-scale projects, and hire and fire developers.
Middle managers monitor the performance and workflow in the department and report to the senior manager. The senior manager, in turn, coordinates the project manager's needs with the development team, which requires remarkable people skills and the ability to effectively resolve conflicts.
Director, Vice President, Chief Technology Officer
Senior management, such as director, vice president, and CTO, reports to the CEO or board of directors of the company. They direct the work of other managers and are often responsible for setting strategic and corporate direction.
If people management isn't what you're interested in, a career as a software engineer still provides such a good level of income that you can still be a team player and have a decent career.
Software engineer
According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the outlook for engineers and software developers is 24% growth, much faster than the national average for jobs. Due to the high technical qualifications and the small number of qualified engineers, the stakes are high for a software career.
