After that had been promoted to the Director of Engineering role. As a DoE my focus was the coordination of several DevOps focused teams on bigger projects, helping development and product teams to better estimate new features, plan them from the infrastructure perspective. Also, a big part of my work was personal communication with engineers from different departments, helping them to solve personal and technical issues, coaching new leaders within the engineering department.
