In this episode of The Start & Scale Podcast, we’re joined by Jeff Watkins, a seasoned CTO with experience at companies like AND Digital and BJSS. Jeff shares the evolution of his career from hands-on coding to high-level leadership, and the growing need for ethical, people-first decision-making in tech. We dive into the consequences of AI, why junior roles are being displaced, and how simply “writing code” isn’t enough anymore. Plus, we explore the importance of leadership training and learning from failure. If you’re leading a tech team or scaling a product in the AI era — this one’s for you.
