Companies need to be more intentional about facilitating mentorship remotely. Formal programs pairing juniors with seniors can help bridge the gap. Also encourage seniors to actively offer 'virtual office hours'.
Be proactive! Reach out to senior people whose work you admire. Ask for a brief virtual coffee chat to ask questions or get advice. Most people are willing to help if you make a specific, respectful request.
Participate actively in team channels and meetings. Ask thoughtful questions. Show your engagement. This makes you more visible and senior folks might notice your potential and reach out.
