For a given level, meeting the specified number of years of relevant experience is not strictly required. However, every year short is harder to account for with respect to promotions or hiring. Years of relevant experience are important for establishing a track record
since it takes time to assess the impact of long-term decisions. Time served in industry or academia cannot stand alone. Your experience should also be relevant to the level criteria.
We promote individuals to the next level after they demonstrate consistent performance at that level. While they do not need to meet every single criterion of the next level to be promoted, they must meet the Scope & Impact criteria.
In this document, team refers to an engineers immediate team; organization refers to the group under a VP or Director.
