Founding CTOs (NYC): How to Build Your Software Factory
ONLY for founding CTOs of venture fund[ed|able] startups with <10 engineers (agents don't count!). We also accept highly technical CEOs of 0..1 startups.
Founding CTOs is an invite only Gather.dev community, curated by Peter Bell.
Join our community of Founding CTOs on Tuesday April 21st at 4:30pm in NoMad as we discuss how to effectivelty build a software factory.
Some teams have already built software factories where no human writes or reads the code. As Founding CTOs, we're ideally positioned to do this: small teams, modest codebases, limited context. Let's break down the patterns that work, dig into harness engineering, and workshop the issues we're all still figuring out. Whether you've built an orchestrator or you're just getting curious, this should be a great conversation.
Just this month, I'll be giving a short talk sharing the patterns I've seen for effectively building software factories.
After setting the context we’ll be breaking into groups of our closest peers to share our challenges and our wins and to come up with practical next steps for accelerating our software development processes.
