Product teams are scared of technical debt and refactoring. They press on to make something new, not to question what they have already created. However, the urgency to deliver new products carries the risk of technical debt.  Today, we talk with Andreas Creten, a software engineer turned CTO. Andreas is a co-founder of Made With Love, a company that helps startups and scaleups to get out of technical trouble. Andreas tells us how to work with product teams to address technical debt in the early stages of software development, what tools to use, and what mistakes to avoid.  When you finish listening to the episode, connect with Andreas on Twitter or LinkedIn and visit madewithlove.com.  Mentioned in this episode: Andreas on Twitter at https://twitter.com/andreascreten Andreas on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreascreten Made With Love at https://madewithlove.com
