Epic
A large body of work too big to complete in a single sprint, broken down into multiple smaller user stories or tasks.
Think of it like
Like a full home renovation broken down into individual contractor jobs — plumbing, electrical, drywall — each schedulable and trackable on its own.
Junior or senior?
Junior sounds like
Breaks an epic into smaller chunks that are still too big to ship independently.
Senior sounds like
Can describe slicing it into pieces that were each independently shippable and valuable.
Ask them
“Tell me about an epic you broke down. What was your first shippable slice of it?”
