Making the jump to engineering manager

This is a placeholder first post. Replace this with your own story — what prompted the move into management, what surprised you, and what you'd tell someone considering the same jump.

A few prompts that tend to make for a good first post:

• What was the hardest habit to unlearn from your IC days?
• How do you measure your own success now that you're not shipping code directly?
• What's one piece of advice you'd give your first-week-as-a-manager self?
