What are career paths?
Career Paths give you a visual map of how roles are structured in your organization — where you currently sit and what growth opportunities exist. Access them at My Development → Career Growth (/develop/career-growth).
How career paths are organized
Your organization’s career paths are built from three levels:
| Level | What it is | Example |
|---|
| Department | Broad organizational area | Engineering, Sales, Marketing |
| Family | Career ladder within a department | ”Software Engineering” ladder |
| Position | Specific role at a level | ”Senior Software Engineer” |
- Individual Contributor (IC) — specialist/technical track
- Managerial — people leadership track
What you see
When you open Career Growth, you see:
- Your current position — highlighted in the map based on your assigned role
- Growth path — positions above and alongside yours in the same family
- Required skills and competencies — what each position needs (if your admin has configured this)
Click any position to see its details: description, required skills, and required competencies.
How positions connect to development
Positions link directly to your development tools:
- Skills & Competencies — each position defines what’s needed. Compare your current levels against the target position to identify gaps.
- Personal Development Plan — your PDP is derived from your current or target position. See Personal Development Plan.
- Goals — when creating a goal, you can target a specific position. Juno suggests relevant skills and action items based on the position’s requirements.
For admins
Career paths are configured by admins in Admin → Career Growth:
- Positions — create and manage positions with descriptions, skills, and competencies
- Departments & Families — organize positions into career ladders
- Levels — define IC and managerial tracks with numbered levels
- Bulk import — upload positions from CSV
- Labeling — customize position descriptions and categories
