Episode 17 – How to organise engineering teams

What’s the best way to organise an engineering team? In this episode we share how we organise our engineers into teams that enable them to deliver new functionality quickly and also reliably. We’ll discuss how you balance the autonomy that allows engineers to do great work with the oversight needed as we work in a regulated industry. We discuss this with two senior members of the engineering team: Nassos Antoniou and Ricardo Avalos, and your regular host Jason Maude.

Building an entirely new kind of bank doesn’t happen overnight – and it takes a village. At Starling Bank, our village is populated by a diverse team of engineers and developers working together to build and run the UK’s first mobile only bank account, through agile development processes and leading tech. Fellow software developers, iOS and Android developers and general development enthusiasts – this podcast is for you! The Starling Developer Podcast has been created to give you insider access into what goes on behind the curtain at a leading challenger bank, from the technical challenges of cloud-run banking through to iPhone and Android development. Starling’s engineering team will also be discussing subjects like our cloud-based infrastructure and the connections we’ll be making with other fintech frontrunners in the future. Welcome!
