Peer Programming to increase "Team Quality”

Most engineers are familiar with pair programming. Your team may already encourage it to foster learning or as an alternative to ensuring code quality via pull-request reviews. This talk will show you the impact that collaboratively creating code has on "team quality" rather than just "code quality" - creating opportunities to build trust, increase shared ownership, and define and better understand a shared vision. And if you weren’t convinced before, we’ll end with a few practical tips on getting started with pair and mob-programming.

Nico is an engineering manager at Dynatrace, working with teams building the cloud and CI/CD foundations of an internal developer platform. With a background in robotics and devops, he’s passionate about all things automation and creating software that simplifies life. Nico co-organizes agile and leadership meetups and volunteers at robotics competitions for children.
