A comment on When hiring senior engineers, you’re not buying, you’re selling. Parent comment
Do you have problems to solve or not? Often the problem isn't really a problem, except that your current 'solution' is making it so.
I've untied a lot of gordian knots in my career. It really is a thing.
And if you don't have big problems to solve, why do you want a senior developer then? Just hire a junior and keep on going as usual.
Delivery focus is good, till you realise that it's often just delivering status quo for years on end.
