Contribution extends beyond writing code for engineers

Contribution >> just coding - Build backend systems for real problems - Automate workflows that save hours - Ship AI-assisted features that actually work - Write clear docs and how-tos for your team - Experiment with new tools (don't waste time on all, pick a few) - Start a convo in your engineering channel - Connect with other builders and leaders (real talk) None of this guarantees success, but it makes you better and teaches you what actually works
