Episode notes
Built Flags At JPMorgan Chase
- Ariel built a feature flagging platform at JPMorgan Chase and later used those skills in the UK digital bank project.
- That experience led him to join Split and focus on measurement and learning in feature flags.
Reduce WIP And Collaborate Early
- Reduce work-in-progress and encourage engineers to collaborate in real time to cut wait times and rework.
- Experiment with pair or mob programming and small controlled trials to prove effectiveness.
Feature Flags Change The Unit Of Control
- Feature flags separate deployment from release and create a new unit of control: the feature instead of the application.
- That separation makes deployment frequency less meaningful and requires rethinking DORA metrics around change enablement.
