    Tech Talk with CTO of CUBE Charl Coetzee

    Not just for developers, this episode will help business leaders in any department to serve their customers. Charl Coetzee, CUBE Chief Technology Officer, discusses: how he approaches technology as the CTO (beginning at 4:42), the downside of building seamless technology (starting at 11:25) how he decides what tools or technologies the CUBE team should be using (timestamp 22:25), how he evaluates what a customer wants (when sometimes they don't know themselves!) (starting at 30:22 and again at 48:21), the workflow management of development (53:49), how to evaluate technology honestly (1:02:51), and a look ahead for technology (1:06:33) Though technology is ever-evolving, Charl gives key insight with examples from the past that bring clarity and practical ideas that you could implement into your personal or team practices today.
