When I first graduated I read a bunch of tech focused books: they’re all helpful but I think practice and learning from more senior engineers is the most effective road to mastery! You can probably get away with not reading any of these books if you have good coworkers :).

That being said, these have been my favorites:

- designing data intensive applications (a great way of understanding systems + the basics of SRE)

- the senior engineer (I love the prototyping process he lays out)

- the effective engineer (lots of good gems for approaching prioritization)

- debugging (by David agans)- a great resource for a formalized debugging process if you don’t have one

- on writing well (I’m halfway through this, but it has been indispensable for writing tickets + messages at work)
