Building Durable Software with Ashu Chatterji
Listen now
Description
There is an eternal dilemma among software developers - should we try our best to predict the future and build it into our code, or should we just plan for frequent iterations?  Today we talk with Ashu Chatterji, CEO of Caravel Labs and software engineer with 3+ decades of industry experience, working to reimagine IT consulting as an industry incentivized by innovative outcomes in global sustainability and social justice. Ashu built and led a global practice of "player-coach engineers" that helped sell and deliver path-breaking digital transformation engagements and laid the foundation of Agile software development in Microsoft consulting services. He tells us how to build durable software that will withstand the test of time and the ever-changing needs of its users.  When you finish listening to the episode, connect with Ashu on LinkedIn and visit the Caravel Labs website to learn more.  Mentioned in this episode: Ashu on Linked In at https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashutoshchatterji/  Caravel Labs at https://www.caravellabs.com
