🌟 Crossjoin Academy: Personal Breakthroughs and Efficient Self-Mastery Our Crosser, Diogo Mucharrinha, joined as a DevOps Engineer, but describes his Academy experience with one word: growth. While his technical project focused on Automatic Incident Monitoring and Remediation, his most significant development was in his soft skills. Diogo highlights two crucial areas of personal growth that the Academy nurtured: Overcoming Personal Barriers: "I received the necessary 'push' to understand and confront the fear I had of presenting." This is one of the two skills that most advanced his career. Optimized Self-Improvement: The other key skill he developed was learning how to guide self-criticism to efficiently address flaws. These breakthroughs were enabled by a safe learning environment that offered a crucial lesson on process management: "A key highlight was learning, safely and firsthand, how misaligned expectations and ignoring our Methodology affect a consultant's efficiency." For Diogo, the Academy is where continuous follow-up and personal analysis truly transform the consultant. His final piece of advice: "Make the most of the tools that are provided and enter the Academy with a willingness to learn and improve." Join us and discover a program that invests in your holistic growth! 🎓 #CrossjoinAcademy #PersonalDevelopment #SelfCriticism #ITCareer #Methodology #DevOps #Crossjoin

"With AI taking on more coding tasks, the role of software engineers is shifting. They're now more focused on designing sophisticated systems, planning implementations, and ensuring AI is used ethically. This shift requires flexible team setups that integrate AI tools, enhancing cooperation between human specialists and AI capabilities." The Future of Software Development:  In velv's new article, our CIO - Nuno Godinho, explores how AI redefines IT, highlighting the strong connection between AI advancements and changing team roles.

Our COO Margarida Garcia addressed a critical challenge at MIT Technology Review's EmTech conference: why context is everything in AI coding. The problem? Current tools stay very much at the surface. They can fix isolated bugs but struggle with multi-file editing and understanding how complex systems connect. When errors span interconnected files, generic AI tools can't trace the root cause contextually. "Understanding a codebase in some enterprise environments is effectively a nightmare," Garcia explained. "Having tools that bridge that gap and actually ingest, learn from the context—that can be your intelligence layer that knows more about your codebase than any engineer around." This is why poolside deploys within your security boundaries, understanding your specific context rather than offering surface-level solutions.

You're starting a job in the software team at Shapeways. You'd expect to be diving into the code, right? Not so fast. When new engineers join Tiago São José's team at Shapeways, they don’t start by writing code. Instead, they spend a day in production — packing boxes, shipping orders and using the tools they’ll be developing. Because developing the best software comes from understanding how its used in the real world, and knowing the people who use it. ▶️ In this clip, Tiago explains why empathy is at the heart of engineering.

I've found that the Superpowers framework (https://lnkd.in/dMd5sHz9) is very effective when working with coding agents. I think most engineers working with coding agents realise how important the planning phase is. However, I've never been *completely* convinced by the native planning mode that you get with tools like Claude Code or Cursor. Over the last couple of weeks, however, I've gotten pretty consistent planning documents from Claude via the Superpowers plugin. I also like how each plan is broken down into two separate documents: one for design, and one for implementation. The actual implementation is then carried out via a new subagent per task, with additonal spec compliance and code quality reviews in between. This does obviously result in higher token usage, but I've found that the results are generally consistent (and I don't have to constantly keep going back and forth). Definitely worth taking a look at!
