The Art of Letting Your Devs Step Up w/ Equinix’s Rajah Kalipatnapu

Like every other team-based profession, engineering needs leaders. But identifying a true, tested and proven road for taking a programmer and putting them in a position of managing projects & priorities is still a work in progress.That’s why I was so excited to speak with Rajah Kalipatnapu, Global Head of Product Engineering at Equinix. One of the most experienced minds in building world-class engineering orgs, Rajah credits his success with focusing on different ways to incrementally identify leaders and empower them to be the managers their business needs and their colleagues admire.From his unique perspective on creating CEOs for features to dealing with beloved employees who can’t code up to the teams’ needs, Rajah’s theories on how and when to let your developers step up to the moment need to be heard.Access the engineering benchmarks report here: http://linearb.io/benchmarks/Register for Interact on October 25th: https://devinterrupted.com/event/interact/ Want to try LinearB?  Book a LinearB Demo and use the "Dev Interrupted Podcast" discount code.Join our Discord Community ►► discord.gg/devinterruptedHave 60 seconds?
