Engineering Culture Revived
What is the focus of your work as CTO at Superbet today?
We are currently building the technology capability for a new global online betting and gaming proposition. My role involves everything from establishing platform direction, new capabilities / teams, ways of working, and influencing our digital business strategy.
What's the motivation for the talk that you're giving at QCon?
I’d like to start a conversation with the community about how software development teams can embed an engineering culture to establish better ownership of the full lifecycle of what they’re building. As the scale and pace of ‘digital’ demand has swept across industries, and as many (especially large corporates) have struggled to keep up, we’re seeing a ‘parallel universe’ of techniques/ tools and vocabularies emerge from those drafted in to help by the executive (all too often, management consultants/ analysts). These interventions impede, even defy the evolution of ‘good software’, establishing a culture completely at odds with the values behind great engineering.
