Hey, really appreciate you taking the time to ask — and even more so for being open to mentoring. Twenty years in the game is serious, and folks like you are exactly who our troops need.

To answer your questions: 1. What mentors do Mentors help guide our troops through the learning and career process. That includes reviewing code, offering feedback, sharing your experience, and helping them get unstuck when they hit a wall. It’s not about having all the answers — it’s about being consistent, showing up, and being real with folks trying to break in. 2. Time commitment + 1:1s We aim for one 1:1 per month per troop, but we’re flexible. Most mentors give about 1–2 hours a week, including async stuff like reviewing PRs or replying in Slack. If you only have 30 minutes, we’ll work with that. We respect your time and want this to be something sustainable.

If you’re down to talk more or need anything else cleared up, hit me up directly. Would love to have you on board.
