Organization and methodologies

An engineering guild is defined as a group of engineers who have a common goal and a desire to share best practices with the rest of the team. The goal of a guild is to implement positive change in an area of our product in a structured format.

Guilds are empowered to make decisions about the organization of work and to initiate projects (workgroups) for its contributors to:

  • Collaborate and communicate outside of their teams
  • Discuss, evangelize and learn about specific technical topics and best practices
  • Reduce the complexity of transverse issues
  • Research new methods to develop reusable models for transverse issues
  • Align with ADRs (Architecture Decision Record) The guilds hold regular presentations. These meetings are public, and anyone from Ricardo and the broader community (SMG) is invited to attend.
