> I see this as a lack of confidence in their skills and abilities and achievements

Given that imposter syndrome is well-documented in our industry, it's quite possible that I've done cool things, or impressive things, but not realize that they are cool or impressive because I am in awe of the awesome developers I work with.

Combine that with most of my work being something like "I added new features in our Ember app, and fixed bugs in the UI and backend", and it often is easy to feel like the day-to-day work I do isn't awesome, even if what I am building is (IMO) pretty cool.
