Technical debt is a ubiquitous problem for engineering managers, but what does it actually mean and how can you best attack it while balancing the other needs of the business?
Led by Rob Zuber, CTO of CircleCI, this session dives deep into the realm of technical strategy. It explores why technical strategy matters, how to align it with business objectives, and how to measure the impact.
In this talk, I'll help you establish focus, cut through metrics that don't matter, and sharpen your team's execution so that you can meet your business goals.
Emily will talk about different archetypes that are common for the VP of Engineering role, how to assess what type your organization needs, and how the role can evolve over time.
