My title is director of product development. I manage a team of roughly 30 people with 1 layer of management between most ICs. While it’s not evenly distributed, over the course of a year I spend about 10% of my time writing code. I’ve worked in strictly development roles before where I was still coding less than 50%

How did you grow? I imagine that to become a director one must have had a very good IC career and accomplishments.
