Episode notes

In this episode of The CTO Podcast, Lucas and Luna dive into how Shopify cut build times from over an hour to under five minutes using Bazel, remote caching, and a carefully managed monorepo. They explore the engineering trade-offs, the cultural shift required, and the surprising win that came from treating developer tooling as a product. If you run an engineering org wrestling with slow builds, this is the roadmap you've been waiting for. #Shopify #Bazel #RemoteCaching #DeveloperExperience #Monorepo #BuildTimes #CTOPodcast #TechLeadership #EngineeringOrg #BusinessAndTech #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #SoftwareEngineering #DevTools #Scalability #ContinuousIntegration #DeveloperProductivity #TechInfrastructure Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
