The Principal Engineer’s Path: Skills, Strategies, and Lessons Learned

Sophie Weston explains that technical careers are winding journeys, not straight ladders. Drawing on 30 years of experience, she shares how senior ICs can become "broken combs" by broadening skills in systems thinking and strategy. She discusses the vital role of organizational flexibility and explains how public speaking and community engagement create feedback loops for career success.

Failure As a Means to Build Resilient Software Systems: A Conversation with Lorin Hochstein

In this podcast Michael Stiefel spoke to Lorin Hochstein about how real-world failures provide insight into how software systems actually work. Our first topic was understanding that while automated fault injection tools can introduce basic robustness into a system, they cannot replicate the understanding that comes from mitigating complicated software failures in the real world.
