• Stakeholders rarely agree on what they want
• Legacy systems are a pain to work with
3/5 So how do you 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝗹 with this?
1. Get internships or entry-level jobs
2. Work closely with experienced engineers
3. Learn from your failures
4. Ask for feedback on your work
4/5 Systems thinking isn't just for '𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘦𝘤𝘵' SE roles.
Look for ways to use these principles in any engineering job. Learn from your mistakes.
The best Systems Engineers I know didn't wait for the perfect job title. They jumped in, messed up, and kept improving.
