Career Decision Consulting (1:1) for Software Engineers
Supporting your key career decisions
What It Is
Career Decision Consulting is a one-off, structured conversation designed to help you decide between options when the cost of being wrong is high.
Typical decisions include:
Stay in your current role vs. move to a new company
Accept a promotion vs. change teams
Staff engineer track vs. engineering management
What It Is Not
To set expectations clearly, this is not the following:
Not ongoing coaching
Not emotional processing or therapy
Not generic career advice
How Does It Work
1. Book a Session
You book a session directly using the scheduling link (and complete payment at the same time).
If you don’t see a suitable time due to timezone differences, feel free to reach out to me directly and we can discuss alternatives. I’m based in Japan (JST).
2. Prep: Submit Your Context
After booking, you will receive a link to a short Google Form.
You’ll be asked to share:
Your current role
The specific decision you are trying to make
Why is the decision hard to make
Any additional context you think matters
This ensures the session stays focused on one real decision.
3. Live Decision Consulting Session
During the session, we focus on:
What decision you are making
Key trade-offs and second-order effects
Risks, reversibility, and opportunity cost
I will challenge assumptions, identify blind spots, and share my perspective based on real engineering and management experience.
By the end of the session, you should leave with:
A recommended direction or a narrowed set of options
Clarity on what still needs validation (if anything)
The value is in reaching clarity and being able to move forward.
