## 🙌 What went well
|
||
|
||
- Priorities and capacity
|
||
- Data team has increased in capacity
|
||
- TMT has a lot more visibility and alignment with us
|
||
- We’ve done a good job at structuring demand and ****keeping pushy stakeholders at bay
|
||
- Adhoc/Data Captain deliveries have been flowing orders of magnitude better than in the Pablo-era
|
||
- Team organization is working well
|
||
- Internal collaboration is quite smooth so far (we’re good people 🙂)
|
||
- VERY GOOD documentation in Notion, repositories, etc. on the Data stack
|
||
- The way we are organizing the team and distributing the responsibilities, I really appreciate the tools we are using like the board that makes very easy to keep track of everyone's assignments.
|
||
- I think the dailies are also very helpful to stay in contact and updated to what everyone is doing in their day to day work
|
||
- I feel very comfortable with the team and the disposition of everyone to be very helpful inside and outside the office.
|
||
|
||
## 🌱 What needs improvement
|
||
|
||
- Development workflow in dbt / PBI could be more agile and frictionless
|
||
- Stakeholder visibility/relationship with other teams
|
||
- Clear lack of data exposed / reported to business and product teams
|
||
- Backlog of engineering dependencies/topics is messy and we drop balls
|
||
- Data priorities and tempos visibility to the rest of the business
|
||
- Data modelisation problems from the source (ex: guest journey end date needs tons of logic because it was not properly implemented, expected revenue figures, sources of Hosts, etc)
|
||
- To have a documentation of all the data we can work with, maybe of the source tables.
|
||
|
||
## 💡 Ideas for what to do differently
|
||
|
||
- Tooling
|
||
- More hands-on development onboarding for Data
|
||
- A bit complicated to review PBI reports - ensure these are exposed in our workspace for Data team reviews?
|
||
- More connection with the engineering team
|
||
- Start running dbt tests in production
|
||
- Reduce bus factor for Data Engineering
|
||
|
||
## ✔ Action items
|
||
|
||
- [ ] Formalize further the relationship between Data <> Engineering and dependencies
|
||
- [ ] Backend documentation and know-how Productboard item
|
||
- [ ] Simplify dumping of prd data to local environment
|
||
- [ ] Add to backlog the creation of onboarding-hello-world-challenges
|
||
- [ ] Discuss further hands in Engineering with Ben C.
|
||
- [ ] Add `dbt test` to dbt run script
|
||
- [x] Kidnap staging workspace to make delivery
