As a developer I feel my career advancement stagnating in its current trajectory.

This feels silly to ask, but is there merit to obtaining a masters degree as a software/design engineer to get to staff level one day?

My gut says experience and street cred matter way more but I'm curious what others think of the ROI.

Especially 5+ years staff-level engineering experience at a consumer tech startup with millions of DAU >>>>>>>>
