This document is not intended to replace or override the relationship and mutual understanding we will build as we work together. Its intention is to give you an idea of how I think and how I work. 4 | 5 | ## My role as a tech lead 6 | 7 | **TL;DR: I am here to make sure our team is successful, happy, and working on the things that are most important to help our customers, improve our product, and improve our business.** 8 | 9 | More granularly: 10 | 11 | 1. I am here to make sure you are both successful and happy: I want you to improve your technical skills, grow your career, enjoy your work, and believe in both our team's and our company's mission. 12 | 2. I am here to make sure our team is successful and pointed in the right direction. You might hear Dharmesh talking about [aligning vectors](https://thinkgrowth.org/what-elon-musk-taught-me-about-growing-a-business-c2c173f5bff3): I am here to make sure our team is all aligned and pushing in the same direction. 13 | 3. I am here to make sure our team is getting what we need from other teams, and that other teams are getting what they need from us; I'm also here to help make sure we are working on the right things, which is not necessarily everything we're asked to do. 14 | 4. I write some code too! 15 | 16 | These are in approximate order of importance. If you are not successful and happy, our team is not successful (or happy). If our team is struggling, writing code will most likely not be my top priority. 17 | 18 | Additionally: My job is _not_ to tell you exactly what to do and how to do it. It is also not to be the "official decision maker" for our team. When I asked some other people for feedback on this README, one asked about this point, and then said something I thought was poignant: "I am _accountable_ for the decisions the team make, even if I’m not the one making them most of the time." 19 | 20 | ## Feedback 21 | 22 | If you have feedback for me, please give it. It could be something you liked and would like to see more of, something you thought I could do better, something you thought I totally screwed up, or something that doesn't fit in any of these categories. Even if you think it might not be the case, I _do_ want to hear it. And if you think I don't want to hear it, I'd love to hear why you feel that way. 23 | 24 | If you can give me this feedback face-to-face (Zoom or in person), that's my preference. If you're only comfortable kicking off a discussion with an email or a Slack message, I would rather you do that than not bring it up at all. 25 | 26 | If you're not comfortable giving me some feedback yourself, I'd love for you to give it to someone above me in the management chain so they can anonymously relay it to me. 27 | 28 | Similarly, if you have feedback for a team member or colleague, I encourage you to give it to them directly; if you're not comfortable doing so, let's chat and I can either get the feedback to them or we can figure out a way to deliver it that makes you comfortable. 29 | 30 | ## One-on-ones 31 | 32 | I will put thirty minutes on your calendar each week for a one-on-one. If you need more time, let me know and I will adjust. I will probably schedule our first one-on-one for an hour just to be sure we have time to go over the team mission and other introductory things; don't feel the need to prepare for it. 33 | 34 | One-on-ones are _your time_. I will probably have some things to discuss with you, but this is first and foremost your opportunity to let me know how you're doing, what you need, what you wish could be different, how you feel about our team and your teammates, what your career goals are... etc. These are for the conversations you might not necessarily have with me when we're sitting at our desks amongst coworkers. If you'd like to give me a brief status update on things you're working on or that you're stuck on, that is fine with me, but those are generally better-suited to a quick chat while I'm at my desk, an @ on a Github issue, a Slack message, or a separate meeting. 35 | 36 | I encourage you to write down some things throughout the week that you want to chat about if you think that will help, since it can sometimes be hard to think of or bring up things in the moment. If you have things you want to talk about but struggle with bringing them up, feel free to send me a vague agenda ahead of time. If you don't know what to talk about, say so. We can use that as a topic. 37 | 38 | These are some interesting articles I've read about one-on-ones, though I don't necessarily agree with all of the points: [1](https://getlighthouse.com/blog/effective-1-on-1-meetings/), [2](https://medium.com/@mrabkin/the-art-of-the-awkward-1-1-f4e1dcbd1c5c). If you have thoughts on either, that might make a good topic to include in a one-on-one. 39 | 40 | ### Performance 41 | 42 | I will give you feedback on how you're doing continuously, including in our one-on-ones. If I'm worried about your performance, I will let you know. My goal is for you to never be unsure about how you're performing (and how I think you're performing). If you ever feel unsure about either of these things, please let me know. 43 | 44 | ## My schedule 45 | 46 | I currently work entirely remotely. I generally consider my work hours to be 10am to 6pm, though this varies somewhat depending on meetings. If I am not available during my normal hours for some reason, I will mark it in my Slack status (and on my calendar if I am out for a day or more). 47 | 48 | This readme used to have a section on my in-office schedule, but so much has changed since I last worked in the office regularly that I have removed it and will update it if and when that becomes an option again. 49 | 50 | ### After-hours communication 51 | 52 | I will get a sense of your normal working hours as we begin working together, and I will make a strong effort not to message you outside of these hours because I know many people have Slack notifications sent to their phone. I will sometimes send emails outside of your working hours (especially if we're in different time zones), as emails don't tend to notify people quite as intrusively; you should not feel obligated to respond until you are working. With Slack I tend to use the "schedule message" functionality if I am sending a message outside of your usual working times, since it tends to trigger a notification. If you are receiving after-hours Slack messages from me with any frequency, please let me know—it may mean I'm misunderstanding the hours you normally work. 53 | 54 | If for any reason I do urgently need you outside of your normal working hours, I will page you. This will happen _extremely_ rarely (if ever). 55 | 56 | Similarly, if you email or Slack me outside of my working hours, I may not respond quickly. I do try to keep up with notifications in case there's anything urgent, but if I read a message and it's non-urgent, I may leave it until the next working day. If you have something non-urgent you want to tell me and it's outside of my work hours, I don't mind if you Slack me, though I always appreciate an explicit note that it's non-urgent! If you need me urgently outside of work hours, paging me is the best way to get hold of me, though you can always try Slack too first. 57 | 58 | ## If you need something 59 | 60 | 1. Slack me or set up an impromptu Zoom meeting. 61 | 2. Throw something on my calendar. If I am scheduled for an interview or something else I can't reschedule and you invite me to a meeting, I may chat with you and reschedule. If you see that I've blocked off the day or time block as "meeting-free", that does not apply to you—it's more to discourage folks outside the team from scheduling non-urgent meetings that day that could be scheduled otherwise. If you need to talk, schedule over this as much as you need. 62 | 63 | Even though I work from home now, you can expect me to be as available as I would be if I was in the office. Although it may feel weird to schedule a brief Zoom meeting when you'd normally just swing by my desk for five minutes, please do so without hesitation if you think chatting face-to-face or screen-sharing will be more useful than textual communication. 64 | 65 | ## Caveat 66 | 67 | Take this document with a grain of salt: I wrote it! I have never experienced having me as a manager. If I'm your TL and something here seems off, open a pull request or issue, or (probably more comfortably) bring it up to me in one-on-one or over Slack. 68 | 69 | ## Expectations of you 70 | 71 | This document is meant to focus on how I work and what to expect from me. We will discuss expectations I have of you and the rest of the team soon after we begin working together, and I will link you to an internal onboarding document with some HubSpot-specific onboarding information. 72 | 73 | ## My interests 74 | Here are some things I love. If you ever want to strike up casual conversation and don't know what to talk about, these are good bets :smiley: 75 | 76 | * Animals. I used to foster cats and kittens, and you'll inevitably hear about Max and Ruth, both former foster cats of mine who are now my permanent cats. You'll almost certainly meet my dog Atlas on Zoom, since he usually hangs out in my office during the day. When I'm in the office I try to meet and get to know as many office dogs as I can. If you see a dog in the office, I always like being told about them so I can go say hi. 77 | 78 | Max and Ruth sitting on a couch 79 | Atlas 80 | 81 | * I love to read, both fiction and non-fiction. I keep lists of books I'm reading [here](https://mollywhite.net/reading), and am always looking for suggestions. 82 | 83 | * Cooking and baking. I love trying new recipes and new cooking techniques. I always want to hear about new recipes you've tried or want to try, or just chat about cooking and baking in general. 84 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /LICENSE.md: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | Attribution 4.0 International 2 | 3 | ======================================================================= 4 | 5 | Creative Commons Corporation ("Creative Commons") is not a law firm and 6 | does not provide legal services or legal advice.

Other rights. 190 | 191 | 1. Moral rights, such as the right of integrity, are not 192 | licensed under this Public License, nor are publicity, 193 | privacy, and/or other similar personality rights; however, to 194 | the extent possible, the Licensor waives and/or agrees not to 195 | assert any such rights held by the Licensor to the limited 196 | extent necessary to allow You to exercise the Licensed 197 | Rights, but not otherwise. 198 | 199 | 2. Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this 200 | Public License. 201 | 202 | 3. To the extent possible, the Licensor waives any right to 203 | collect royalties from You for the exercise of the Licensed 204 | Rights, whether directly or through a collecting society 205 | under any voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory 206 | licensing scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly 207 | reserves any right to collect such royalties. 208 | 209 | 210 | Section 3 -- License Conditions. 211 | 212 | Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the 213 | following conditions. 214 | 215 | a. Attribution. 216 | 217 | 1. If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified 218 | form), You must: 219 | 220 | a. retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor 221 | with the Licensed Material: 222 | 223 | i. identification of the creator(s) of the Licensed 224 | Material and any others designated to receive 225 | attribution, in any reasonable manner requested by 226 | the Licensor (including by pseudonym if 227 | designated); 228 | 229 | ii. a copyright notice; 230 | 231 | iii. a notice that refers to this Public License; 232 | 233 | iv. a notice that refers to the disclaimer of 234 | warranties; 235 | 236 | v. a URI or hyperlink to the Licensed Material to the 237 | extent reasonably practicable; 238 | 239 | b. indicate if You modified the Licensed Material and 240 | retain an indication of any previous modifications; and 241 | 242 | c. indicate the Licensed Material is licensed under this 243 | Public License, and include the text of, or the URI or 244 | hyperlink to, this Public License. 245 | 246 | 2. You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any 247 | reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in 248 | which You Share the Licensed Material. For example, it may be 249 | reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a URI or 250 | hyperlink to a resource that includes the required 251 | information. 252 | 253 | 3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the 254 | information required by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent 255 | reasonably practicable. 256 | 257 | 4.

You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share 277 | all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database. 278 | 279 | For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 supplements and does not 280 | replace Your obligations under this Public License where the Licensed 281 | Rights include other Copyright and Similar Rights. 282 | 283 | 284 | Section 5 -- Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability. 285 | 286 | a. UNLESS OTHERWISE SEPARATELY UNDERTAKEN BY THE LICENSOR, TO THE 287 | EXTENT POSSIBLE, THE LICENSOR OFFERS THE LICENSED MATERIAL AS-IS 288 | AND AS-AVAILABLE, AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF 289 | ANY KIND CONCERNING THE LICENSED MATERIAL, WHETHER EXPRESS, 290 | IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHER. THIS INCLUDES, WITHOUT LIMITATION, 291 | WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR 292 | PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ABSENCE OF LATENT OR OTHER DEFECTS, 293 | ACCURACY, OR THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF ERRORS, WHETHER OR NOT 294 | KNOWN OR DISCOVERABLE. WHERE DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES ARE NOT 295 | ALLOWED IN FULL OR IN PART, THIS DISCLAIMER MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. 296 | 297 | b. TO THE EXTENT POSSIBLE, IN NO EVENT WILL THE LICENSOR BE LIABLE 298 | TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, 299 | NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE FOR ANY DIRECT, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, 300 | INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR OTHER LOSSES, 301 | COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS PUBLIC LICENSE OR 302 | USE OF THE LICENSED MATERIAL, EVEN IF THE LICENSOR HAS BEEN 303 | ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR 304 | DAMAGES. WHERE A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS NOT ALLOWED IN FULL OR 305 | IN PART, THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. 306 | 307 | c. The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided 308 | above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent 309 | possible, most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and 310 | waiver of all liability. 311 | 312 | 313 | Section 6 -- Term and Termination. 314 | 315 | a. This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and 316 | Similar Rights licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with 317 | this Public License, then Your rights under this Public License 318 | terminate automatically. 319 | 320 | b. Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under 321 | Section 6(a), it reinstates: 322 | 323 | 1. automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided 324 | it is cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the 325 | violation; or 326 | 327 | 2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor. 328 | 329 | For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any 330 | right the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations 331 | of this Public License. 332 | 333 | c. For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the 334 | Licensed Material under separate terms or conditions or stop 335 | distributing the Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so 336 | will not terminate this Public License. 337 | 338 | d. Sections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public 339 | License. 340 | 341 | 342 | Section 7 -- Other Terms and Conditions. 343 | 344 | a. The Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different 345 | terms or conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed. 346 | 347 | b. Any arrangements, understandings, or agreements regarding the 348 | Licensed Material not stated herein are separate from and 349 | independent of the terms and conditions of this Public License. 350 | 351 | 352 | Section 8 -- Interpretation. 353 | 354 | a. For the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and 355 | shall not be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose 356 | conditions on any use of the Licensed Material that could lawfully 357 | be made without permission under this Public License. 358 | 359 | b. To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public License is 360 | deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the 361 | minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision 362 | cannot be reformed, it shall be severed from this Public License 363 | without affecting the enforceability of the remaining terms and 364 | conditions. 365 | 366 | c. No term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no 367 | failure to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the 368 | Licensor. 369 | 370 | d. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted 371 | as a limitation upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities 372 | that apply to the Licensor or You, including from the legal 373 | processes of any jurisdiction or authority. 374 | 375 | 376 | ======================================================================= 377 | 378 | Creative Commons is not a party to its public 379 | licenses.
