Why we built the Engineers Collective
The tech landscape is shifting.
In a world where technical skills are often seen as the pinnacle of a software engineer’s career, it’s easy to overlook the true challenge: communication, leadership, and navigating complex human dynamics.
In fact, it's not the technical skills that separate good engineers from great ones—it's the ability to lead teams, inspire peers, and communicate clearly across a range of audiences.
The Engineers Collective exists to support software engineers across industries, career stages, and tech stacks with one goal in mind: to help engineers excel in their careers.
How? By building meaningful peer connections and strengthening soft skills.
We are proud to be hosting this event in partnership with Osman Mah from Mahvellous Coaching
