Articulating your technical strategy doesn’t have to be a daunting task. This talk will cover some useful tips to help you navigate communicating your technical strategy, from prepping to iterating, to audiences large or small. I’ll use the real world example of how I’ve communicated my team’s “API 2023” technical vision at Netflix.
Key takeaways:
- Preparation - making sure you understand the problem set, whether its your own team’s charter or a technical direction you want your company to go towards
- Write it down - write a draft without thinking about it too much. Following a template can help you
- Communicate - in a ever growing circle of stakeholders and advocates, and adjust based on feedback
- Iterate - the document should be an evolving document just like your company. It’s ok to modify it as you gather more information. You may need to even pivot the whole thing!
