Either your industry (fintech, gaming, SaaS) or your function (growth, consumer, b2b, platform, ML) can become a specialty.
Develop expertise by taking multiple jobs in the space or rising to a senior rank at an awesome company.

For most tech workers, this is your LinkedIn.
Nail it:

There are infinite ways to make your LinkedIn stand out.
Choose a few:

A website can include far more information than LinkedIn, in the format you want it.
It becomes a compendium for superfans to go deeper.
People love you before they meet you, and your pieces do work for you in your sleep. ([View Tweet](https://twitter.com/aakashg0/status/1503068936266522625))
