Description

Michael Levan explains how specialized teams and smart abstractions can lead to better outcomes. Drawing from cognitive science and his experience in platform engineering, Michael presents practical strategies for building effective engineering organizations.

You will learn:

  • Why specialized teams (or "silos") can improve productivity and why the real enemy is ego, not specialization.

  • How to use Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) and abstractions to empower teams without requiring everyone to be a Kubernetes expert.

  • How to balance specialization and collaboration using platform engineering practices and smart abstractions

  • Practical strategies for managing cognitive load in engineering teams and why not everyone needs to know YAML.
