CTO network - I have a question for you. Is a technical background essential for a CTO? In a discussion last week with Alex Farr, group CTO at Christie Group, the change in requirements for the role was prominent. Many moons ago when I hired my first CTO, technical expertise was the number one thing any hiring company wanted. Now the picture is very different. Some barely even mention candidates’ experience with tech. My question for you - why is this? And is a technical background even essential anymore? #CTO #Tech

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐈𝐥𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐞: 𝐇𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐂𝐓𝐎 𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐒𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞 (Reader discretion - this post was created with more than a pinch of sarcasm and cynicism.) Are you ready to dive into the mystical realm of tech leadership? Buckle up, because #hiring a CTO is a piece of cake... or is it? Let's embark on this whimsical journey and explore the seemingly straightforward task of finding your tech guru. Step 1: Summoning the CTO Ah, the age-old ritual of summoning a CTO. Just sprinkle some coding jargon, draw a pentagram with USB cables, and voilà! Your very own CTO appears in a cloud of debugging smoke. Easy, right? Well, not quite. Turns out, they prefer Slack messages over pentagrams. Step 2: Identifying the CTO Spotting a wild CTO in the tech jungle is like finding a needle in a stack overflow. They're elusive creatures, camouflaging themselves with hoodies and laptop stickers. But fear not! Just look for the telltale signs: a faint glow of screen light emanating from their cave (aka home office) and the sound of furious keyboard tapping. Step 3: Luring the CTO Now that you've identified your target, it's time to lure them out of their coding sanctuary. Offerings of artisanal coffee and the promise of unlimited snacks usually do the trick. But beware: once you've lured them in, they might start discussing algorithms and scalability. Don't panic, just nod and smile. Step 4: Sealing the Deal Congratulations! You've successfully captured a CTO. Now, all that's left to do is seal the deal. Offer them equity, a fancy job title, and the freedom to build their tech empire. But remember, they're a rare breed, so be prepared to negotiate... and possibly sacrifice a few hours of sleep. In conclusion, hiring a #CTO may seem like a walk in the park, but beneath the surface lies a labyrinth of technical acumen and strategic thinking. So, next time you embark on this quest, tread carefully, armed with knowledge, patience, and maybe a few extra USB cables. Until next time people.

A good overview of what is going on with the tech job market. "Big Tech is slashing hundreds of thousands of jobs and blaming artificial intelligence, but there may be more to the story than that. Intel just announced fifteen thousand layoffs yesterday, causing their stock price to plunge. Big Tech, who for over a decade provided all sorts of employee perks may no longer be the dream place to work." I am biased towards this video because it reaffirms some things that I've been saving for years: - Tech jobs at smaller companies or non-tech organizations are more stable and less intense than Big Tech - Don't get into tech unless you are actually interested in the field. Its a volatile field that requires continuous self-education and the ability to pivot. - AI isn't as much of a threat to tech workers as the average CEO
Big Tech Doesn't Want You Anymore

Microsoft's hiring of Sam Altman and Greg Brockman feels a bit icky. As the biggest investor in OpenAI (they own 49%), it looks like a pretty brutal conflict of interest. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella was being a bit cute about it in his tweet. First setting out that he remains committed to their partnership with OpenAI and looking forward to getting to know the new CEO. But then right in the next sentence happily announcing they'll hire Sam Altman and Greg Brockman, 'together with colleagues'. Strategically it's clever - better get the all star team working for you than somewhere else. But it must leave an extremely bitter taste in OpenAIs mouth, if your biggest investor/supporter is essentially trying to put you out of business like that. Not just hiring Sam and Greg, but also raiding your team. It should make any tech company think twice about taking money from a strategic investor.

I teach you to decode tech interviews and secure offers 🎉 morganlatimer.com | Founder & Career Coach, Senior Advisor for Brilliant Black Minds at Karat
Y'all don't understand how incredible this conversation is. Let me spell it out in 9 observations: 1) These are my brothers in Christ and fathers 2) Lawrence went from restaurant manager to dev to Dev Rel. He talks the talk cause he's walked the walk. 3) These men know the power of learning and building out loud. 4) It's not perfection, it's direction. You will fail, mess up, and give up. Perseverance will get you there in time. 5) We build tech for people, not computers. Focus on the people problem and all else will follow. 6) Rocking the Brilliant Black Minds t-shirt, where Black engineers get free practice technical interviews (link in comments). 7) Showing love to real ones like Scott Hanselman, Justin E. Samuels, Clark Sell, Danny Thompson, and James Q Quick. 8) Code Connector is dope, loved rockin with them this year (can't wait to get to Memphis)! 9) Taylor Desseyn is truly the recruiter engineers love.
I am joined today by Developer Advocate Lawrence Lockhart to talk about his career into tech which is a good one!!
