Long Unstructured Version : Exploring The Role of a Software Engineering Manager

This is a video in the series of videos where we analyse in depth the various roles in software engineering organizations.

In this video we analyse a very important role: Software Engineering Manager ( SEM ).

This is long and unstructured but very useful for aspiring and junior software engineering managers. Will follow it up sometime in the future with a shorter , more structured video with powerpoint slides.

What is covered:

- Need of a SEM : is it even needed in your organization ( or the one you want to join or interviewing for)
- Roles and responsibilities of a SEM ,along with breakdown
- Types of organizational structure needed to empower an SEM
- Skills , knowledge and experience needed from an SEM
-The purpose of hierarchy , and value ( or not) provided by each tier of hierarchy in a software engineering organization
