The path from being a developer to a Tech Lead seems like a scary transition. As a developer, you could focus on constantly learning new tools, libraries, frameworks and programming languages. It was mostly you and the computer. The Tech Lead role feels like a path where you will no longer get to code. You feel like you know what makes a good developer, but you’re unsure about what makes a good Tech Lead. In this talk, Pat Kua will reveal the lessons he wishes he’d learnt as a first time Tech Lead.
