>""SV-like" companies think of software engineers as the people best suited to solve the problems that the organization has. They hire not only for technical skills but communication and problem-solving ability. Their thinking is a bit more like this:

Software engineers are among the highest-paid people in our company.

This is because they can bring some of the highest leverage through coding and problem solving.

We want to expose them to the business, so while they are doing their "normal" work, they can also find more impactful opportunities for the business."
