In shortWeek one / Month one / Month two / Month three.
1. Week one
Meet the flock, set up your laptop, and ship a one-line change. The goal is to see your work in production by Friday.
2. Month one
Pair with a buddy, shadow on-call, and read the architecture docs. Ask questions. All of them.
3. Month two
Take on a real project with a clear owner. You will get feedback quickly and often.
4. Month three
Present what you learned. We do not expect mastery, only a good understanding of where the feed is.
