Linear reposted this
My first podcast, it was really fun! We chatted about how we plan out work at Linear, how we keep the quality bar high, our zero bugs policy, and incident management. Thank you Chris Evans and Lisa Karlin Curtis for welcoming me.
Fast, effortless to use and beautifully designed. Linear is a phenomenal product for modern software development ✨ This week on The Debrief, we talk to Sabin Roman, engineering manager at Linear about how they build… Linear! We dig into topics including: 🤝 How they assemble short-lived teams to build new features 🐛 How they’ve introduced a zero bugs policy to drastically reduce the time before bugs get fixed 🥅 The “goalie” role they’ve introduced to ring-fence capacity for unplanned work ✨ Their processes for driving every engineer to think about quality and sweat the details There’s a huge amount of insight here, and fresh approaches to software development you could stand to learn from. Enjoy!
Nice
Great to have you! I could have comfortably continued the conversation for many more hours 🙂
Let’s go Sabin Roman! 👏👏👏
Founding Engineer at incident.io 🔥
2moWas so great to chat - super interesting to see the parallel evolution of Linear and incident, quite a lot that's familiar from your folks' setup ❤️
