Summary

Every person is an individual and every team is unique. There is no secret sauce or set formula to follow when trying to build a successful team. You need to forge your own path and build your own culture, but you can learn a lot about approaches to try, and pitfalls to avoid, from the experiences of those who have spent time on the wild rollercoaster ride that is scaling a fast-growing software engineering team.

In this talk Olly will uncover some of the lessons he’s learned while overseeing the growth of the FreeAgent engineering team from 1 to 75 developers and managers over the past 12 years.
