🙌 What went well

  • Team and Jarana
    • Data Comilona + Meetup = Nice combo! +1
    • We survived the period without Ben
  • Data Platform
    • No more dumps <3
    • First usages of dbt versioning have worked nicely
    • dbt testing is working nicely so far
    • Performance and DevEx improvements in both production and dev environments have made things much better
  • Delivery
    • Hubspot integration in progress
    • Data requests feedback was very positive
    • KPIs sessions with PMs were quite insightful
    • Q3 was closed with success and everyone is happy, plans for Q4 are clear and aligned with everyone
    • Business Overview PBI app looks very good after latest changes from Joaquin
  • Stakeholders
    • New Dash/New Pricing much better communication with Product/Tech teams
    • Very happy to see that data quality improvements are being prioritised in Guest Squad (GJ completion date)

🌱 What needs improvement

  • DE Vacancy
    • Data engineer vacancy
    • Timing for Data Engineer is looking ugly
  • New dash
    • Still its quite confusing and time consuming to work on New Dash/New Pricing
    • New Dash/Tech/Product drama
  • Other
    • Edeposit invoicing misunderstanding

💡 Ideas for what to do differently

✔ Action items

  • If Data Engineer vacancy doesnt progress by end of september, pursue sign-off on consequences
  • Think about how to make some kind of “PBI Homepage” where Superhog personnel can find all the PBIs that are available easily
  • Document all the config references (URLs, DB connection strings, credentials, etc)
  • Agree with Ben R. on a different way to manage permissions PBI
  • Potentially, also include CI checks in dbt repo
  • Make a cleaning day for Data Catalogue docs
  • Document existing invoicing processes, not just new ones
