The global pandemic has been an extraordinary test of the human spirit. In our day-to-day lives, we’ve been challenged to re-think the way we work, live, and play in a virtual world. For engineers at today’s software companies, an immediate pivot to remote work in March 2020 brought with it a variety of challenges and opportunities.
What principles, priorities, and trade-offs have engineering leaders applied to drive innovation in this “new normal”? What lessons learned can we bring into a post-COVID world? Can a start-up mindset within a mission-driven engineering culture play a role in accelerating the product development cycle, no matter what the circumstances?
Intuit CTO, Marianna Tessel, will discuss first-hand experiences and key insights into what it takes to grow and scale a global engineering team to deliver software faster at scale to its consumer, self-employed, and small business customers. Cowboy Ventures Founder, Aileen Lee, will also share her insights on the impact of virtualization for entrepreneurs and start-ups in the midst of the COVID-19.
