How would you track technical health against the strategic roadmap?
Bridging engineering health signals to roadmap decisions. Combine DORA metrics, performance budgets, and architectural fitness into a scorecard with thresholds that force roadmap negotiation when health declines. Wrong: no feedback loop into roadmap.
Your ability to translate technical telemetry into strategic business decisions rather than just operational dashboards. Propose a tiered health model combining DORA velocity and stability metrics with leading indicators like performance budgets, API deprecation debt, and test coverage; establish explicit thresholds that trigger roadmap interventions like engineering sprints or feature trade-offs before health becomes critical. Treating metrics as passive observability rather than an active governance tool that reshapes product priorities.
