Summary
Santhosh Yadav discusses his promotion to Staff Engineer at Celonis, contrasting it with his previous experiences of leaving jobs rather than being promoted. He emphasizes that management is a "side step" not a "step up" from an Individual Contributor (IC) role.
The conversation moves into why engineers often leave jobs after two years, the importance of finding fulfilling work, and how a colleague's comment ("planted the seed") and the book "Staff Engineer's Path" helped him pursue the promotion.
A significant portion covers Santhosh's personal health journey after a Type 2 diabetes diagnosis, which led him to prioritize health, drop conference speaking, and take up running. He shares his progress from struggling with 3km to completing a half marathon, emphasizing listening to his body, proper gear, rest, and not comparing himself to others. This inspired him to launch devswhorun.dev to motivate other developers.
Other topics include:
- The value of validation and good managers.
- Dealing with toxic work environments (advice: leave).
- Productivity while working from home.
- His podcast "This is Tech Talks" and interest in home automation.
The core message: cherish what you have and the importance of health for sustainable impact.
