Artifact: Ladder Behavior Mapping — Maya's Recent Actions

Three of a report's recent actions mapped against the Senior Engineer ladder rung's own stated text -- exercises co-06. Everline and every name here are fictional; every quote is an illustrative, constructed example.

Maya's recent actionLadder rung citedMeets it?
Wrote a one-page design note for the event-retry logic before coding it, and defended the choice of exponential backoff over fixed retry in her 1:1."Proposes a design approach for a multi-day task before writing code, and can defend a trade-off in it."Yes -- first time this quarter.
Reviewed 1 PR this week, only because Priya assigned it directly."Reviews at least 2-3 PRs a week beyond assigned ones, catching design issues, not just style."Not yet -- volume and initiative both short of the rung.
Caught a subtle off-by-one in a teammate's PR during that one assigned review, with a specific suggested fix.(Same PR-review rung as above)Partial -- when she does review, the depth is already there; frequency is the gap.
