I have bookmarked John Allspaw's thorough writeup about this topic because I figure it's worth re-reading to internalize: http://www.kitchensoap.com/2012/10/25/on-being-a-senior-engi...

He also makes reference to the Dreyfus model of skill acquisition which is worth keeping in mind: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dreyfus_model_of_skill_acquisit...

This. I've shared this definition with a number of aspiring seniors over the last few years - Allspaw describes "senior" far better than I ever could.
