Lunch & Learn: What is a Tech Lead role?

What we’ll cover:

During this Q&A we’ll explore the journeys and experiences of the people on the panel going into the tech sector, what helped them to identify their strengths and areas of focus as they entered and progressed in their workplaces, and what they think is important for anyone considering a leadership role in the future. We’ll talk about what a leadership role within tech looks like, and the opportunities and challenges a developer might face as they take on more responsibility within their work. We’ll also look at it from an employer's perspective, exploring when this role might be valuable and what you need to consider before introducing different leadership pathways within your tech team. 


Who’s this for:

  • Anyone curious about obscure roles such as a Tech Lead within the tech sector. 

  • Any developer or engineer who is wondering about what to focus on within their career, and whether a leadership role might be right for them.

  • Any engineer or hiring manager responsible for shaping your tech team.
