For junior smart-contract developers, what does “real ownership” look like in the first few months?
I’ve interviewed juniors who believe “ownership” means solving everything alone — and that usually leads to burnout or hidden mistakes. In smart-contract roles, ownership is more about visible thinking and responsible communication.
Even if you don’t fully understand a module, you can take ownership of the process: asking clarifying questions early, writing down assumptions, narrating what you’re testing, and keeping people updated.
What are actionable ways juniors can show they’re reliable and not just waiting passively for tasks or rescue?
