"You have good values." This is one of the nicest things anyone could say to me. Values tell who we are and what we think is important. If my coworkers can see my values in how I behave, I think I have succeeded in my working career.
During the last three years, I've had the opportunity to conduct some 70 technical interviews. In all these interviews, I've asked candidates the same question: "What is good software?" In this post, I'd like to share some ideas of answers to this question.
This post is an attempt to summarize what I have learned of product development during my seven years building software products in the industry. Please let me know what you think and what is missing!
