By 6 months you will: · Be making significant, measurable progress on technical debt while balancing new feature delivery and defect resolution. · Have a team that is consistently delivering on its commitments by deadline. · Have earned the trust of your team and become a respected partner to your stakeholders. · Be attracting and motivating excellent engineers who care about great teams and great software. · Have your personal goals on track.
