Learn how balancing feature work with technical debt remediation leads to sustainable software delivery.
Engineering teams often face intense pressure to deliver features fast, but building on a shaky foundation eventually slows things down. This talk explores the hidden cost of neglecting operational excellence and shows how technical debt, if left unmanaged, compromises security, scalability, and team velocity. We’ll unpack why brittle systems are harder to change, debug, and maintain, and how they quietly erode customer trust and developer morale.
Attendees will learn how to assess the health of their systems using qualitative and quantitative inputs, including developer sentiment, customer experience feedback, and usage patterns. We’ll introduce a simple, actionable framework for assigning system health scores and using those scores to drive investment decisions.
Rather than choosing between feature velocity and technical stability, we’ll explore how to balance both, ensuring teams can innovate without trading away long term performance.
