How to Prepare for Yearly Performance Reviews as a Software Engineer
Yearly performance reviews for software engineers can be a stressful and/or exciting time. If we can prepare for review season by having a clear idea of our impact, data to support it and a clear vision for where we want to go in our career, we can set ourselves up for a successful yearly performance review.

Descope Your Software Project To Deliver Early And Often
Descoping a project or feature simply means making it smaller. This might mean cutting out a few bells and whistles, or it could mean making large changes to the overall requirements.
By evaluating project requirements and deadlines early on, and looking for ways to deliver smaller portions of that project earlier in the process, we can deliver value earlier and more often.
This process can help us reduce risk and help increase the overall quality of the project by getting feedback earlier on in the software development process.

Look For The Root Cause When Solving Problems
When debugging an error in our code or looking for a solution to a given problem, it's easy to fall into the trap of going with the quick, obvious solution. However, this often sets us up for future problems because many times the obvious solution does not solve the root cause of the error or solve the fundamental problem of the task in front of us.
By asking questions like "how?" or "why" we can dig deeper into the potential solutions and try to identify a fix or solution that addresses the immediate need while also avoiding future problems.
