Hi, Habr!

On May 19, we invite you to the third Badoo Techleads Meetup for leads, department heads and service stations.
')
Let's talk on completely different topics, but not losing relevance: building a business-oriented development, staff onboarding and delegation. We will also hold a panel discussion, during which we will raise one of the most, perhaps, exciting technical issues: what companies expect from the developer and how they conduct interviews.

Register here. Please note that you need to wait for confirmation of participation. The number of places in our cafe is limited, and we hope for your understanding! We will also make an online broadcast.

Address: Tsvetnoy Boulevard, 2 (m. Trubnaya)
Reports start at 11:30
The broadcast will be on our YouTube channel and in VK and FB groups. We will publish records in the same place and on Habré.

Program

“How to build a business-oriented development. Experience DomKlik "

Alexey Kuzmin, Technical Director of the dwh- and data science teams

In DomKlik recently only developers and Product Owners have been working. How can a team of almost 250 people live without requirements, testing and other familiar processes and tools? It turned out quite convenient and easy.

In his report, Alexey will talk about the advantages and nuances of such a device, such as:

• short release cycle
• conveyor development. CI / CD
• 80% test coverage requirement
• horizontal communications
• metrics for each product

"Welcome aboard: we put newcomers into service."

Andrey Gomenyuk, Team Lead (Badoo)

“When a new employee comes out, the leader wants him to start the tasks as soon as possible and become an independent combat unit. You can “take the handle” and lead a person through all the circles of adaptation, but what to do in a fast-growing team?
I will tell you what steps to meet a newcomer should be done before starting work, on the first day and during the trial period, so that the adaptation is as painless as possible for both the business and the team. I will share the principles that guided us when creating QuickStart - our tool for beginners - and I will focus on the unobvious, but important, nuances of onboarding. ”

“Delegation as a tool for a manager”

Ilya Ageev uyga , Engineering Director QA (Badoo)

“In my report I will tell you what delegation is and what types of delegation are. I will tell a couple of bearded fables (and one in general several times, but this will be in the subject) and mention such clever words as management theory, the concept of continuous improvement, kaizen, bass factor, neocortex, working maturity levels, situational management and others. I will mention such smart people as Henri Fayolle, Henry Ford, Chester Bernard, William Deming, Robin Dunbar, Paul Hersey, Ken Blanchard and others. I will give examples of incorrect delegation and, finally, I will try to tell you how to do it correctly.

At the end of the report, I will talk about a very secret delegation know-how, about which no one can speak. Shhhhh! ”

"She is forced to write code at the interviews, click to see"

Ivan Lukyanov, Technical Unit Leader (Avito).

How the process of hiring engineers in Avito has changed, and why it happened.

Panel discussion “Developer's meeting: process, quality, expectations”.

Together with invited experts and guests of the mitap, we will discuss the following issues:

- the flow of ordinary interviews: stages, participants, requirements

- when it is necessary to go deep into the technical part and how much

- technical interview at the interview! = Examiner, or how to check the candidate's knowledge

- the difficulty of finding results-oriented developers

- the qualities and skills that a technical person is looking for in a candidate (besides technical skills)

- how to give a correct and clear feedback

- who and how should make hiring / refusal decision
