Listen "Software Engineering, Big Tech, and Agile - Interview With Jade Wilson"

Episode Synopsis

I was joined by Jade Wilson in this video interview! Jade is not only a senior software engineer at Microsoft, but a successful content creator. When we got to talking, it was really cool to hear that we have very different experiences with how our teams approach building software:
- My teams go through a pseudo-agile / waterfall hybrid (i.e. we try to be agile but commitments are done on larger horizons)
- Jade gets to work DIRECTLY with customers quite regularly

A huge takeaway from Jade in this video was that it's *NOT* just about picking Scrum or Kanban... The entire point is to find things that work well for your team. Copy+pasting some process and blindly following it without adapting things is probably not going to be ideal.

Thanks for the awesome chat, Jade!
