“The effective engineer” by Edmond Lau is a good book for the IC software engineer working in an engineering organization.

The most influential content on engineering in my life is not in a book but a YouTube talk entitled How Complex Systems Fail by Richard Cook, which is about designing resilient systems. I’ve applied these ideas to many aspects of life, not just engineering.
