  1. Common Technical Debt Challenges

    These are common challenges people face when gaining expertise in technical debt. Tackling these challenges head-on can help you learn this skill quicker.

    I'm a software engineer at a fast-growing startup. As we scale, we are accumulating a lot of tech debt, and it's impacting our development process. How can I prioritize and communicate the importance of addressing tech debt to my team and stakeholders, while still meeting our business goals?
    I'm an engineering manager at a mid-sized tech company. We have a legacy system that was built many years ago and is now causing significant technical problems. The system is outdated and has become a black box that only a few engineers understand. This creates a dependency on those engineers and makes it difficult to onboard new team members. How can I convince the management to allocate resources to refactor and modernize the legacy system so that we are set up for long-term scalability?
