In Singapore, I’ve noticed that titles like “Senior” or “Lead” in the tech world can mean wildly different things depending on the company. I once met a “Tech Lead” who had less than two years of experience—why is this so? Anyone care to explain if this is a Singapore only thing? And I guess in the tech world, are titles overrated, or do they really impact how you’re seen in the industry? 🤔

Titles can be tricky, especially in tech. Sometimes “Lead” means managing a small team, sometimes it’s just the most experienced coder. In Singapore, I feel companies are still figuring out standardisation. Titles can influence salary and respect, but real recognition comes from your work and reputation.
