🎙️ In this episode of Señors @ Scale, Principal Engineer Tudor Barbu (ex-Personio, Skyscanner) shares two decades of software engineering lessons — from hacking on cassette-based machines to leading platform efforts in modern frontend teams.

We talk debugging horror stories, the evolution of tech roles post-pandemic, and the shift from chasing technical perfection to delivering user value. Tudor breaks down what it means to be a pragmatic engineer, how he interviews for adaptability, and why ownership (not just code) drives results.

Whether you're mentoring juniors, scaling architecture, or just tired of reading octal bugs — this one’s for you.
