Premium Resource Library

Practical Notion templates and resources for engineering managers, senior engineers, and technical leaders.

This index is open to everyone. Each resource links to a page explaining what it contains and how it can help. Paid members can duplicate the complete template after the divider on that page.

I do not suggest blindly copying any of these templates. Use them as inspiration. They worked for me in specific situations over the years, but your situation—business context, team structure, and team dynamics—will be different. If one looks useful, give it a try, adapt it, and keep iterating until it fits your context and becomes yours.

People leadership

The Engineering Manager’s 1:1 System

Prepare for recurring 1:1s, capture the useful parts of each conversation, and keep agreed actions visible without maintaining a complicated system.

The New Engineering Manager’s 90-Day Checklist

Use a structured table of management expectations across trust, delivery, collaboration, direction, and manager growth—then capture evidence, choose priorities, and adapt it to your context.

Career growth

Career Growth Plan

Connect a longer-term career direction to near-term objectives and a small set of goals you can review through real work.

Senior Engineer Work and Impact Log

Keep a running record of meaningful work, its scope and results, and the evidence you may need for a career conversation or performance review.

Technical leadership

Staff and Tech Lead Role Agreement

Clarify the outcomes, boundaries, technical involvement, available support, and definition of success for a technical leadership role.

Technical Decision Consequences Worksheet

Compare options and record what a technical decision enables now, what it may cost later, how reversible it is, and when it should be revisited.

New resources will be added to this library as they are released.
