Connection between engineering, product and company goals.
How the level is calculated
The four component scores have equal weight. Code averages them and rounds to a level in the relevant track: IC1–IC6 or M5–M6. IC5/IC6 require matching technical complexity and strategy; M6 requires organization-level scope and strategy.
Scores require described work that matches the ladder. Titles, promotions, years and prestige do not fill missing evidence. Confidence describes the classification, not job performance.
All four components must be established to calculate a score. Missing evidence leaves the level unassigned; it does not mean low ability. Managers use M5–M6 only when their responsibilities support those criteria.
These components and the calculation adapt Remotely’s July 2026 ladder proposal for CV screening; the document does not prescribe a formula. This is an estimate from CV evidence.
