Meet Vasco Figueira, a Senior / Lead Software Engineer, I was lucky enough to work with at a previous company. Curious by nature, with the ability to balance pragmatism with the constant pursuit for excellence, Vasco is always a great person to have a conversation with.

Vasco and I discuss how to build effective software engineering teams. The conversations kicks off what the definition of what an effective team is, how an effective team works under different types of leadership styles, with other teams and externally. We also discuss the importance of the first technical hire and wrap up with a discussion on the importance of a solid interview process.
