Introduction

Welcome to the YETI Ascent System, the framework for member growth and organization on Team 3506 YETI Robotics. This system is designed to help every student understand their roles, responsibilities, and the steps that they need to advance within the team. Currently, we use Level 1 (L1) and Level 2 (L2) roles to define the progress of technical abilities across both our Engineering and Business teams.

On the Engineering side, this includes our:

• Mechanical sub-team
• Controls sub-team: split between Programming(Robot Programming & Web-Dev) & Electrical sub-teams 
• Strategy sub-team. 

And, on our Business side, it includes our:

• Marketing sub-team
• Finance Manager

All of these sub-teams have L1 and L2 roles (exception for the Finance Manager). By following this system, we can ensure that every member has a clear path to develop their skills, take on leadership roles, and essentially contribute to the overall success of the team.
