Hi ya'll. Here's a couple of the most important things I wish I knew about software engineering before I started my career in quant dev.

The thing I wish I knew when I first started as a dev twenty years ago is that soft skills are just as important as technical skills. We spend hundreds of hours learning new tech yet little to nothing on learning and improving/evolving our soft skills as non-technical things change (the business changes, the people changes, the goals change, the world changes). That and don’t get [too] emotionally attached to certain platforms or technologies or design patterns or tools. Accept you’re always replaceable. Don’t be blindly loyal to a corporation as they won’t be loyal to you if they have a few bad quarters. No matter how good you are you can be replaced when things in the business change. And finally you can always earn more money but you can’t earn more time. Time is finite. Money isn’t. Neither is health so look after yourself first as if you me health suffers because of work (ie burn out) you will ultimately end up failing.

Jokes aside, glad to see you back CJ. Long time follower here, been following you since the pandemic and your videos have helped me a lot. I only wanted to put a comment as a constructive feedback to your video, especially point 7 - You mention that software engineers should seek constant feedback from their managers. As a manager, I say that keep the feedback sessions to once in a quarter. Becauase not only is it overbearing as a manager to constantly provide feedback, it is also critical for a software engineer to think on their own, and learn to develop their own instincts about whatever it is that they are doing.

Being curt in communication can some times result in more confusion around actions/changes, especially when working across teams where people might not have the same skill set as you. Being as explicit as possible in your communication can save so much time and noise, not doing it can almost be perceived as lack of communication skills.
