Episode notes

Atlassian has had to deal with a number of high-profile failures in the cloud. One example was when one engineer ran a script that deleted some old records and it took us a long time to recover from this. The company wrote out an external blog for this and lots of scars for us who are internal inside like 24 by 7 but we also rallied rest of the organization, said these things happen let's go fix this.

Jason, Eiso and Sri talk about their experiences with system failures and the importance of technical mentors and CTOs in promoting better leadership.
