Charity Majors - On database outages, journey as a co-founder, thriving under pressure and growing as an engineer - #7
Manage episode 287866422 series 2838288
We had a lot of fun speaking with Charity in this lively conversation! We learned about her journey from being an engineer to co-founding Honeycomb, what it was like being on-call when she was only 17, and staying calm during production incidents. We talked about various production outages throughout the episode and our favorite involved driving to a datacenter to flip a DB switch. Charity also shares what it takes to build an awesome engineering culture, the engineer/manager pendulum, and qualities Charity looks for when hiring senior engineers.
