What You'll Do (Job Description)
Your job: write high quality code, and bring a ‘teach a team to fish’ mentality to your project. You will:
Your work week will involve 60%-80% client work (coding, managing a Stride team, and running the engagement). The rest of your time will be spent on strategic initiatives.
A sample day may include:
9am: Weekly Sprint Planning. Me and the client Product Owner co-run weekly sprint planning. We’ve got the meeting down to a nice rhythm. We walk away with a plan.
10am: Daily Standup.
10:10-12:30: Pair Programming. This morning, I’m pairing with another Strider, a mid-level engineer. She’s got strong fundamentals. We’re doing a deep dive into complex backend code. She’s driving, I’m asking questions when I see she gets stuck. She noticed inefficient code and we spent about 20 minutes refactoring.
12:30-1:30: Lunch
1:30-3:00: Pair Programming
3:00-3:30: Mob programming A team member gets stuck on a piece of code. I sit down with Jean and his pair. We call over 2 other developers and we mob program. We figure out a plan and everyone is excited about the collaboration.
3:30-4:30: Mind Map Over the past two months, I’ve observed the team’s strengths and areas for improvement. Today, I’m leading a Mind Mapping session with the Striders. We visually organize areas for improvement. We prioritize each item by complexity and importance. Next Monday, I’m presenting this to the client CTO.
4:30- 5:00: Code Review Today, one of the Striders was coding solo. So, I sit down and review her code.
5:00-6:00: Stride U DevOps Jam; Stride U is ongoing education for Striders by Striders. Seven of us are taking the DevOps Jam course now, it’s 1 hour weekly, for 8 weeks. DevOps is something I’m dipping a toe in and having a safe space to learn real world stuff that I can bring back to my client is amazing.
6:00pm: Leave for the Day. It’s been a good day, I throw on my headphones as I head to the subway.
