Yes he could be suffering from imposters syndrome or he could be an “expert beginner”. The only way you really know the difference is by being in an environment where you can learn from other people. Preferably people with outside of your company industry experience.

I think there's something to learn from everyone we work with. Sometimes it's simply how to be patient and compassionate with people who are challenging to be around :)

But if you work around 2 developers who were also self taught and didn’t have any outside experience, that really doesn’t put you in a good spot.
