OWNING your sandbox.
As software engineers we all like to work on latest technology and coding new applications.
People generally don’t like spending a lot of time maintaining the code.
However, in the world of microservices the owners of each microservice are very well known and defined unlike in the world of monolithic applications. That means that you own it in the true sense.
You own the code.
You own the QA environment.
You own the Stage environment.
You own the production environment and all the errors that come along with it :)
On positive note, you have a lot to be proud of and you can turn it into opportunities :)
You own something that is contributing your company’s customers and what you do responsibly affects the lives of many people in a positive way.

I have been blessed in my software engineering career with great leaders. Some of them challenged me in technical skills. Some of them challenged me in my organization and leadership skills. Some of them challenged me in both. And all of them made me a better software engineer, a better senior engineer, a better solutions architect, a better teammate, and a better leader. If you are a student, find yourself a mentor. If you are a junior software engineer, find yourself a mentor. If you are an experienced software engineer, find yourself a mentor. Remember, you write your own definition of success and you are your own critic. That may mean that you TRY to perfect every stage of your career, or that may mean that you skip some stages in your career. Remember, you are in control. That’s all I wanted to say today :) Keep geeking out. Almir
