Technical Debt With Lee Atchison

Lee Atchison spent seven years at Amazon working in retail, software distribution and Amazon Web Services. He then moved to New Relic, where he spent eight years scaling the company's internal architecture. Lee has deep expertise in building and managing fast growing web applications, and he used this knowledge to write architecting for scale from O'Reilly. Technical debt is a common problem for engineering teams. Technical debt is additional long-term work required to evolve or maintain an application due to a short-term decision in designing or building that application. Too much technical debt can reduce product innovation and lead to lower employee retention. In this episode, we'll discuss all things technical debt based on Lee’s recent article, Technical Debt Will Sink You. Sponsorship inquiries: [email protected]
