Plan technology strategy and engineering team growth with frameworks for technical debt, hiring, architecture decisions, and vendor evaluation. Use Python tools and decision templates to prioritize improvements, structure teams, and track engineering performance.
Technical leadership guidance for engineering teams, architecture decisions, and technology strategy. Includes tech debt analyzer, team scaling calculator, engineering metrics frameworks, technology evaluation tools, and ADR templates. Use when assessing technical debt, scaling engineering teams, evaluating technologies, making architecture decisions, establishing engineering metrics, or when user mentions CTO, tech debt, technical debt, team scaling, architecture decisions, technology evaluation, engineering metrics, DORA metrics, or technology strategy.

python scripts/tech_debt_analyzer.py
Analyzes system architecture and provides prioritized debt reduction plan.
python scripts/team_scaling_calculator.py
Calculates optimal hiring plan and team structure for growth.
Review references/architecture_decision_records.md for ADR templates and examples.
Use framework in references/technology_evaluation_framework.md for vendor selection.
Implement KPIs from references/engineering_metrics.md for team performance tracking.
# Assess current debt
python scripts/tech_debt_analyzer.py
# Allocate capacity
- Critical debt: 40% capacity
- High debt: 25% capacity
- Medium debt: 15% capacity
- Low debt: Ongoing maintenance
# Calculate scaling needs
python scripts/team_scaling_calculator.py
# Key ratios to maintain:
- Manager:Engineer = 1:8
- Senior:Mid:Junior = 3:4:2
- Product:Engineering = 1:10
- QA:Engineering = 1.5:10
