Problem

Scenario

You are leading an engineering team and want a clear way to evaluate performance without over-indexing on a single number. The goal is to track both day-to-day execution and whether the team is improving product and operational outcomes over time.

Question

What metrics do you consider when evaluating engineering performance?

What this tests

  • Choosing KPIs instead of a single vanity metric
  • Balancing leading and lagging indicators
  • Using metrics for diagnosis, not just reporting
  • Connecting engineering metrics to customer and business outcomes
