DevPlan — The professional development platform for software engineers

Hey PH! I built DevPlan after reflecting on my professional growth as an engineer over the last few years. The biggest impact on my career so far, which has helped me grow into some senior and management roles, has been having a consistent professional development plan in place for myself, to become a more well rounded engineer and product builder. However, making and sticking to a development plan is hard work, it’s difficult to know where to start, what to focus on, and how to carve out time to make real progress. This task is even harder as a manager, when you’re tasked with defining and guiding the development plans of your reports, to help them grow and achieve their personal growth goals, all while executing and delivering on product initiatives for your organization. Thats where DevPlan comes in. DevPlan auto generates professional development plans for software engineers. Each plan is personalized, with engineering tasks based on the engineers preferences and skill set. The tasks are distributed over the year to make the plan manageable, and when you need more things to do, there’s a inventory of suggested goals and great technical content to pick from. For managers, DevPlan lets you collaborate with your reports on their growth, and provides you with a hub for tracking their progress, recommending new goals and supporting them with feedback. Managers get to spend more valuable time guiding rather than defining development plans. DevPlan’s overall goal is to make it easier for engineers to plan their professional development, and to help their managers support them. All feedback welcome!
