Why These Blogs

Managing engineers is one of those jobs that nobody teaches you how to do. The blogs here are from people figuring it out in real time — CTOs navigating hypergrowth, tech leads learning to let go of the code, managers trying to build cultures that don't burn people out. The writing is candid in a way that books on engineering management rarely are, because these authors are processing their own experiences, not selling a framework.
