One Engineer and a Swarm of Agents? 3 VPs on What Actually Breaks

What happens to an engineering team when one person can run a swarm of agents? David Shen, Devin Goodsell, and Francisco Trindade came into the studio to pressure-test that idea, and they don't fully agree on the how or the when.The conversation moves from the easy version ("one engineer, a bunch of bots") to the parts that actually matter: where the real bottleneck lives, what breaks when 5,000 agents commit to the same repo, and how you'd shape a team for 2028 without copying Meta's headlines.Our Guests:- David Shen, VP of Software Engineering- Devin Goodsell, VP of AI at Hinge- Francisco Trindade, VP of Software Engineering at BrazeAbout Tech Teams Today:Tech Teams Today is a podcast by Revelo where we sit down with engineering leaders to talk about how they build, scale, and lead high-performing tech teams.
