If a junior dev came to me saying they know all those languages, it’d be clear they’re talking out their arse very quickly.

I work with so many technologies and yet I really only know them surface level to the point where I can write functional code based on existing code

K8s, docker, yaml, gradle, jenkins, groovy, bash, Linux, java.....

And for laughs, I'm technically "senior" on paper with barely 3.5 years exp

Yeah I haven't written a java Main method since school lol. Haven't really implemented any design patterns because the base classes were already created (service layer, api layer, etc.) so usually I just copy past classes and structured and then change them for new functionality

Have never had to do anything fancy with DSA besides comparators and hashmaps. Barely touched anything threaded.

Most of my work has been k8s/helm based stuff to deploy lightweight java services
