How to improve engineering team performance with better DevEx

Connecting Companies with Top Tech Talent at Adeva ‧ Exploring High-Performing Teams at CTO Insights

AI won't make your team faster on its own. Better developer experience will. I sat down with Laura Tacho, CTO at DX, to talk about what actually improves engineering team performance and what just looks like it does. We covered: 1. Why most metrics fail (and how to use them properly). 2. What developer surveys can tell you that GitHub stats never will. 3. How to track DevEx without a fancy tool, even at a 10-person startup. 4. The real impact of AI on engineering workflows (spoiler: it’s not replacing your team). The big takeaway? Developer performance isn’t about shipping faster. It’s about removing friction. Whether it’s bad tooling, unclear goals, or noisy metrics, the teams that win are the ones that make it easier to do great work.

I am curious and will check out the full video. Speaking of AI... I am not thinking about replacing our team. But I feel that we should be implementing AI faster, if we want to stay ahead of competition.
