Growing Your Team: Strategies for Expansion or Re-Org in Engineering

July 18, 2024 14:50 – 15:20 · 30 min Airstream (120)

What this session covers

During this session we’ll go through the scaling challenges for the engineering organisation.

I’ll share the insights from my experience working as a VP Engineering (product company, with the size around 200 people), and how we successfully moved from functional to cross-functional teams within two months.

A lot of important questions will come during the transformation. - How to align the software architecture with the team structure? - Who will own what, what’s the responsibility area for the team - What’s the best team size - Where we can find the leaders for each future team - What are the functions of a tech lead and the engineering manager? - Escalation and operational process

Happy to share my experience!
