Clean Code

Automate the repeatable, standardize the rest

Shared ownership and clear interfaces

Align early on responsibilities and standards, document the interfaces, and work transparently so teams can deliver together without friction.

Measure what matters

Experiment in small increments, validate with users and metrics, and scale only what improves reliability, speed, security, or developer experience.
