Patrick Kua - O'Reilly Author & Technology Leader
ABSTRACT
As a software engineer, you will have learned that "naming things" will remain one of the most difficult tasks in our industry. This is even more confusing when it comes to roles and responsibilities for the tech lead role.
After interviewing many people playing technical leadership roles, establishing a European-wide tech lead training program in his last company, and training hundreds of tech leads around the world, Patrick will share his lessons learned about what exactly a tech lead is, and what it takes to make the role successful.
If you currently have or would like to take on a leadership role for an engineering team, come to this session to hear some practical tips [...]

I wish all tech-related talks were this good. The slides are not overloaded, the pace is just right, and the metaphors fit the topic. Well done! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I have been working as a software developer for the last 3 years. I learnt most of the intricacies of software development. I love my job very well. I came from a humble background to tackle the world's most challenging problem
Tech lead is one of the happy designation in software engiy
I really loved this talk. Thanks you so much :)
A comment about "Amount of coding":
I find a good way to stay in touch with the code AND the team is to avoid actually writing code myself (I often become a bottleneck). Instead I pair program and do code reviews when ever I'm not in a meeting. That way I can keep taps on what is going on, have good dialogue about the code and how it evolves with the other developers.
Excellent talk, informative slides 👌
Great talk!
awesome talk
Wow, 2 years down the line as a developer. Looking forward to gain the skills required to be a tech lean. Awesome talk.
20 years...😱
It's a long time.
Is he a TechLead, or the TechLead, aka the ex-Google ex-Facebook TechLead, who’s name also is Patrick.
No. That dude you're referring to is a phony.
