Porto, leadership in QA does not always come with a title. As Quality Engineering evolves, so do the careers of the people within it. Many professionals find themselves leading initiatives, influencing decisions, and guiding teams long before leadership is formally recognized. This often leads to important questions about growth, direction, and long-term career choices. At the 22nd Test Tribe Porto Meetup, we create space not only for technical learning but also for honest reflection on leadership journeys in modern organizations. Session 2 focuses on a question many professionals quietly ask: To Lead or Not to Lead? A Discussion on Career, Functional and Technical Leadership In this session, Tiago Paixão explores how leadership takes many forms. From technical and functional leadership to informal influence, this talk examines when leadership begins, how it develops, and what challenges leaders face along the way. With decades of experience across industries, Tiago brings a thoughtful and grounded perspective that encourages attendees to reflect on their own paths. This session is especially relevant for anyone considering leadership or already influencing teams without a formal role. Meetup Details 📅 14th January 2026 🕡 18:30 (Portugal Time) 📍 Uphold, Porto If you are thinking about your next career step or want clarity on leadership paths, this session will resonate. 👉 RSVP here: https://lnkd.in/ghmEaaGz Thank you to our Tribe Champions Allan Ferreira and Paulo Oliveira for making community-driven learning possible in Porto. #thetesttribe #portoevents #qacareer #techleadership #testingcommunity

I recently came across this video (Attekita Dev is a great channel, by the way) about building a software engineering portfolio: https://lnkd.in/dijnsm6S If you’re just starting your developer career, a portfolio can be a real game changer. It shows what you can do even when you don’t yet have much formal experience. It helps you stand out from other beginners and gives you real stories to share in interviews, boosting your confidence. I also wrote more about this here: https://lnkd.in/dP5hx8XW To get started: * Choose one small project, even a simple one from a course, and make it yours. * Document not just what you built, but why you built it and what you learned. * Keep improving it over time, growth is more impressive than perfection.
