In this episode, I talk to Jenn Creighton. Jenn is a Senior Staff Engineer at Apollo. Jenn specialized in frontend-end development is currently working on the open-source work for Apollo GraphQL.

She also is a frequent conference speaker, an authoritative voice in tech, and recently started her own podcast called single-threaded

We talk about:

- what a senior staff engineer does, and which responsibilities this title entail,

- why she needed to frequently change her job in order to advance her career,

- how gaslighting, bias, and being underrepresented, underpaid, undervalued is part of her decades-long experience as a developer

- and how she makes sure she is helping others to enter tech and have a better experience.
