AI Coding Team Workflow Policy: Stop the PR Flood
AI coding tools can 2x your PR volume before anyone notices quality is collapsing. Here’s a pragmatic policy for labels, ownership, review SLAs, and enforcement that scales.

How much of what your team merged last quarter was new work, and how much fixed code merged a few weeks earlier?

My old R&D team built the platform meant to carry a hundred-odd engineers off a PHP monolith, and it got scrapped. I'd like to blame the report, but turning their work into a number the business cared about was my job, and I didn't do it.

Technical debt isn't always bad. Debt taken deliberately to test a business hypothesis can be rational. Debt nobody understands, measures, or plans to revisit is a different story. #Startup #TechnicalDebt #EngineeringLeadership

As teams grow, context becomes harder to preserve.
Why was this decision made?
What changed?
What assumptions mattered?
Without shared project memory, even great teams waste time rediscovering what they already knew.

When you start managing managers, I think the biggest change is that you stop seeing the work. Your job becomes the judgment of the people who do.

The most expensive technical decisions get made early, by people who won't know for 18 months whether they were right. By the time a full-time CTO arrives, those decisions are the codebase.

Fractional CTO services: what you are paying for, and when
A fractional CTO is a senior technical lead you retain part-time. What the role covers, when a regular cadence beats a one-off review, and four questions to ask before you hire one.

AI mandates have had a mixed track record. Most engineering leaders know something isn’t working, but don’t know what to do about it.

Any metric becomes a target once people know it’s watched. So what do you pair with throughput when AI writes a growing share of your code, and how do you keep that pairing honest over time?

Most technical standards are written once, read twice, and ignored. I think the ones teams follow are short, give reasons, are enforced by tooling, and have an owner.

Growth changes everything.
What works for one developer doesn't always work for an engineering team using AI together. Shared specifications, governance, and project memory become essential as complexity increases.

We should move from responsibility-oriented job descriptions to goal-oriented ones.

Not because titles are useless — but because AI is reshaping “the job” faster than any JD can keep up.

Define the outcome. Let the responsibilities evolve.
