The key is not to drive the product structure around the engineering teams, but rather to work together with engineering to move together into alignment.

The human tendency to moralize about debt affects engineers, too. For example, at a previous virtual world company , we spent years developing an architecture to cope with millions of simultaneous users.

I grew up on a family potato farm in SE Idaho and I have a PhD in Engineering from Stanford (also known as The Farm). Service-oriented architecture.

Nothing essential that I disagree with you in your post, but when read by other people with minimal software engineering experience, they can have too high expectations. Would love to hear your insights sometime into how to partner with engineers. Find a senior engineer, take them out to lunch, pick their brain. Take good notes!
Expert insights. Personalized for you.
