A Manager README is a good way to introduce yourself as an Engineering Manager.

I keep hearing from engineers lately: there is too much going on.

About a year and a half ago I wrote a framework for quantifying software engineer performance.

In the last couple of weeks I’ve had a few separate conversations that, looking back, were all the same conversation.

I’ve been thinking about this for a while now, and a recent Root Cause podcast conversation pushed me to finally write it down.

I was reading The Software Development Lifecycle Is Dead and had some loud thoughts I want to share.

In my previous post, I wrote about how I approached onboarding after moving from Identity and Access to Synthetic Monitoring and Session Replay.

At Grafana Labs, we don’t just support internal mobility, we actively encourage it.

I’ve been thinking a lot recently about personal growth and, in the process, realized something important: there have always been periods in my career where I wasn’t growing.

I talked in the past about the two metrics that quietly drive a huge portion of our professional outcomes: TTA (Time to Awareness) and TTR (Time to Resolution).
