What does a ‘Tech Lead’ do? Have heard this title a lot and wonder if there is a widely understood set of responsibilities this role would entail or is it just what your company decides

Usually less hands on during sprints. Takes ownership for the solution, tasking for developers etc.

Tech Lead can mean a lot of things. For smaller teams, they may still be hands on but they’re mostly managing a team. They may still be reporting up to an architect.

For larger teams, they may be the primary architect and hands off but owning solution/providing guidance to the tech team.

Tech Leads do these - Solutioning of features, Tasking for developers, helping developers (who are not good) so that they will deliver on time, Doing solution reviews, Doing peer reviews, mentoring, doing POCs, reviewing user stories, Creating Tech Debt stories,

When you recruiters say at the end of a 15 min call.
“I will get back to you by the end of this week” does that really mean “your not right for this position”? Because this whole thing is a waste of time. I’ve did these calls with 3 recruiters and is yet to hear back from someone. Today would be the 4th recruiter that I’ve spoken to. Does this practice annoy you guys just as much as it does us? My dream career is to be a technical recruiter but this whole thing is discouraging.

I started interviewing early Oct with a company that reached out via recruiter. The hiring manager was very straight forward with me that I was his top candidate and I was told all other interviews were very positive incl CMO. The recruiter said they'd be making an offer but it's now been three weeks. Anyone else had the process drag on like this? Meanwhile I'm taking other interviews and was offered a promotion at current company, but was very interested in this one. What would you do?
