from The CTO Podcast with Fexingo: Technical Leadership, Architecture, and Engineering Org · host Fexingo

In this episode, Lucas and Luna dive into how GitLab manages a fully remote engineering organization of over 2,000 developers. They explore the company's unique handbook-first culture, how they maintain code quality across time zones, and the specific tools they use for asynchronous communication. Lucas shares key metrics: GitLab ships 40 releases per year with a median merge request cycle time of under 6 hours. They also discuss how the company handles onboarding, performance reviews, and incident response without a physical office. A must-listen for anyone leading or building a remote engineering team. #GitLab #RemoteEngineering #EngineeringManagement #AsynchronousWork #DevOps #CodeReview #TechLeadership #BusinessAndTechnology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #CTO #EngineeringOrg #RemoteWork #HandbookDriven #MergeRequest #Onboarding #IncidentResponse #Culture Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
