Why this topic matters
In 2026, VPs and CTOs are back in the code. AI tools made that possible. And the implicit message to every engineering manager is clear: you should be hands-on too. But your team also grew to 12+ direct reports. The job expanded in both directions at once, and nobody gave you more hours. The managers who thrive here aren't working harder. They have a system for doing less of the wrong things.

I've managed teams at Meta, Amazon, and startups over 20 years in tech. For the past 3 years, I've coached over 250 engineering leaders through systematic frameworks that accelerate their careers.
