This term was used by an old Senior Developer of mine but for the life of me I can't recall it. The context of the conversation was that he wasn't necessarily more skilled than an Intermediate Developer, but he had more knowledge and experience in particular areas. In a sentence, it would be used like, I have more _____.

My brain keeps giving me the terms region knowledge and area knowledge, and I feel like those may be close, but are definitely not it.

    "domain knowledge", perhaps?

I have more domain knowledge.

Can refer to more knowledge of either the technical environment or the 'business side'.

  • Domain knowledge was indeed the term I was looking for! And shoutouts to Hellion for also answering it in the comments.

Perhaps the words practiced, seasoned or adept could be what you're looking for. Example usage:

He is more practiced in this field of programming.

She is as an adept in functional programming.

He is a seasoned web-developer.

It's used differently than "domain knowledge" or "region knowledge" is but I think it can still be relevant to your question.
