A Technical Roadmap

Tech debt, tech initiatives and projects, and how we've prioritized and reserved capacity for them.

Leading technical strategy and roadmap development for a growing technology organization, balancing technical debt, new initiatives, and business priorities.

Strategic Planning

Developed a comprehensive technical roadmap that balanced immediate business needs with long-term technical health. This involved:

  • Technical debt assessment and prioritization
  • Capacity planning for new initiatives
  • Risk mitigation strategies
  • Stakeholder alignment across departments

Implementation

Created a framework for ongoing roadmap management that included quarterly reviews, stakeholder feedback loops, and adaptive planning based on changing business needs.

Outcomes

Successfully reduced technical debt by 30% while maintaining 80% capacity for new feature development, resulting in improved system reliability and faster time-to-market.
