Context

A new communications product needed a foundation for business services: chatbots, mini apps, notifications, integrations and partner tools.

Personal mandate

Build the platform domain from the ground up and enable internal teams and external partners to develop their own services.

Key choice

Design a platform rather than a collection of separate services — together with the organization, architecture, roadmap and engineering operating model required to sustain it.

How the work was organized

I designed the domain organization, hired key leaders, and defined the technology vision, architecture and engineering principles.

Outcome

An organizational and technology foundation was established, enabling internal teams and external partners to create their own products more quickly.

Management takeaway

At platform scale, the leader's job is to create a system in which many teams can make aligned decisions without constant manual control.
