Unlock the foundational principles of engineering leadership. Success in your company, with your team, requires an understanding that goes deeper than merely adopting industry best practices.

Executive Engineering is a bird's-eye view of the software field that reveals how product velocity, tech debt, Agile frameworks, team charters, and product leadership all fit together and how to use these connections to deliver product value at maximum speed.

Drawing from the lessons of Silicon Valley startups, Jack Danger ties together the many little complexities of engineering leadership into a unified whole and empowers engineering leaders at any size company to deliver real value to customers faster.

In these pages you'll find practical tools to:

Measure and increase engineering velocity
Repair the relationship between Product and Engineering
Uncover hidden layers within your existing team
Make a portfolio of your technical debt

Industry Reviews

"Jack's theory of Technical Coherence is the clearest approach I've encountered for structuring an Engineering organization. It's also a delightful read."

- Will Larson, author of An Elegant Puzzle

"Jack's concept of Technical Coherence is the best articulation of deconstructing organizational design and its crucial role in unlocking engineering velocity. The book is a reflection of Jack's empathy, joy and love for what he does, and the force multiplier impact he has had through leading sustainable teams, with a systems of systems mindset. "

-Smruti Patel, VP of Engineering, Apollo GraphQL

"The thing that makes this book hard to read is that I keep stopping to implement all the ideas. I hope I one day get to work for a CTO who has studied Executive Engineering."

- James A Rosen, Engineering Leader

"Executive Engineering distills common pitfalls of modern software development, and presents a compelling alternative framework for collaboration. A goldmine of hard-earned wisdom."

- Wenley Tong, Staff Engineer, Patch.io

"This book lays out the blueprints of the Engineering culture many engineers wish for but few leaders know how to build."

- David Haslem, Staff Engineer, Pathstream
