Is It On Borah, Ganti, Mustafa

In this second instalment of this series, we discuss the  technical aspects of bringing a new feature to market. We talk about the architectural designs and reviews, product rollouts and a few other key interactions between product and engineering. Enjoy!

In this special two-part series, we talk about product initiatives and how a feature is brought to market. We outline the ideation, discovery and go-to-market process for a new feature in a software product. We also have a quick sidebar about OKRs. In the next installment, we'll cover the more technical aspects of bringing a feature to market like the engineering design documentation, deployment pipelines and infosec considerations.

In this episode, we discuss the decision making process a team typically goes through when adding a new technology to their stack. We use Kubernetes and DCOS implementations as examples to answer the age old question: To tool or not to tool?

In this first sprint, Borah talks about Rokoko the raccoon that he found while working from home, Mustafa tells us how to optimize your home office and we discuss why in order to be productive, you need to kill Slack.

We introduce ourselves and reminisce about how we met as international students at the University of Toronto. We also discuss the story behind the name of the podcast and how we faked it till we "maked" it.
