Yes, Software Development is an Assembly Line, but not Like That
It should be no surprise to folks that agile software development grew out of manufacturing systems developed for exactly the same reasons – to build things more efficiently.
How Open Source Can Enhance Developer Experience
Developer experience (DX) is becoming more and more of a competitive advantage among developer-facing tools and platforms. A great developer experience that’s easy to follow and implement can truly help a software tool stand out from the crowd. Simultaneously, open source software is all the rage. In fact, a recent StackOverflow survey found open source […]

The Advent of Intelligent Software Engineering
Today, to maintain competitiveness, every company needs to behave like a software company and deliver new solutions with high velocity, quality and reliability. New features need to be introduced at a rapid pace, but with high-quality expectations. At the same time, deployment releases and operations are getting complex, debugging and traceability in production are increasingly […]
Threat Modeling as a DevSecOps Practice
Software engineers are always under pressure to build more software, faster. At the same time, there is increasing regulatory and market pressure for secure software that meets users’ and regulators’ requirements for data privacy. This dynamic often puts software engineers at odds with application security or product security teams. In fact, 81% of developer teams […]
How Visibility Helps Devs Focus on Innovation
As software engineering leaders adjust to a future defined by remote and hybrid work models, they are shifting priorities in the organization of work to compensate for the lack of in-person collaboration. According to a recent study conducted by Jellyfish, the top priority for engineering leaders is ensuring that each member of their team is […]
Majority of Software Engineers Want Remote Work Options
The pandemic brought unprecedented change to the digital ecosystem, impacting users, companies and software engineers alike.

How to Build a People-First Engineering Team
When we think about successful technology teams, there is a tendency to primarily focus on the technology being created rather than the people who are creating it. While both approaches can lead to successful products, a technology-first approach is often the default when software engineers become managers without necessarily having the right tools to manage […]

Why Developers Should Care About Resilience
Recently, a friend reminded me of a joke we used to have when we were both developers at a huge software corporation (we won’t mention names, but back when printers were a thing, you probably owned one of theirs). We didn’t develop printers. We developed performance testing and monitoring tools. We were the dev team, […]
