Hi, I’m Swetha, currently the Head of Software Engineering at one of the UK’s leading telecom companies.
But here’s the thing: I didn’t start here. My career began in QA testing at a global consultancy, and if you’d told that young tester she’d one day be leading entire engineering organisations… she wouldn’t have believed you. In this episode, I share: My journey from software testing to engineering leadership The challenges I faced as a woman in technology The 3 lessons I wish I knew before stepping into leadership:
1️⃣ Leadership is more about asking questions than having answers
2️⃣ Imposter syndrome never fully goes away — but it’s a sign of growth
3️⃣ People first, then processes, then code If you’re starting your own leadership journey — especially in tech
I hope this inspires you to step forward with confidence. Watch until the end for my biggest piece of advice for future leaders. Get in touch for personalised mentoring sessions on leadership communication, and mindset growth.
