I’ve only been sending emails to offshore vendors about the things we have to do. I’m not sure if I’m truly managing a team of developers. The offshore vendor will write the specs, do everything from specifications to development to documentations.
All I was really doing was reviewing the work and then approve/reject their work.
Honestly, I’m not exactly sure I want to be more of a managerial role or developer. I do however fear that I may lose my technical knowledge in my current job since I only have to send emails to offshore vendors. My current job does make me realise the “freedom” I get from a managerial role that I will probably not get from a developer role though. I did consider transiting to a managerial role when I’m closer to my 40s or 50s if a managerial role is really so much less demanding than a developer role. But again, I’m not sure if my current job is a true reflection of what a managerial role is because it just feels insanely easy and comfortable.
