Why Your Org Chart is Breaking Your Software

Can bad team structures lead to bad software? The answer might surprise you.

In this episode, André Borgonovo (Engineering Manager at GoodHabitz) joins me to discuss how team restructuring, Conway’s Law, and domain-driven design impact software development. We explore why engineering teams succeed or struggle based on how they’re structured—and what leaders can do to improve collaboration and efficiency.

Key Topics:
✅ How Conway’s Law affects software design in large companies.
✅ The challenges of team restructuring & avoiding common pitfalls.
✅ Why software complexity often reflects organizational complexity.
✅ How to balance stable teams vs. adapting to business needs.
✅ Lessons from real-world engineering leadership experiences.

Whether you're a developer, engineering manager, or CTO, this episode provides valuable insights into building teams that actually work. 🎧
