The Myth of the Full Stack Unicorn

I like working across different parts of a product. That doesn't mean I'm equally good at all of them, and I'd rather be clear about where I need help.

Job descriptions can make breadth sound like an obligation to cover several full-time roles. A better question is which areas need depth on this team and where people can support each other. Being able to follow a problem across boundaries is useful. So is knowing when to bring someone else in.
