Ask HN: How to grow as a Software Engineer?

Hello HN,

I have been working as a Software Engineer for a few years and have worked at a variety of companies (big, medium, small) and it was fun working as a Software Engineer writing code and building systems. However, lately, I have started thinking about where to go next. Writing code is fun, however, as the technology changes, I feel that anybody could just learn a new programming language/ technology of the year.

How could one grow as a Software Engineer and continue to differentiate oneself from the rest of the pack ?

What has your career progression been ? What could be a logical next step for a Software Engineer with a few years of experience ?
