GoCardless Engineers

@petetak Hey Pete, thanks for the suggestion! We haven't considered this before but it's something we can look into. If you'd like to discuss this more with one of our PMs, what would be the best way to reach you?

@GoCardlessEng have you ever considered an auto-save vat feature on invoice payment? Vat automatically goes into user’s savings account. So many businesses I know get cash-flow issues by spending vat that isn’t theirs to spend.

It's been 6 months since I wrote about how we are using #DataContracts to improve data quality @GoCardlessEng. Check out my latest post for an update on how it's going so far, what we've learned, and the challenges we've faced! medium.com/p/bbf24a37206e

Great article linkedin.com/pulse/modern-d… Particularly enjoyed this part on Data Contracts 👇 Data Contracts is a key part of how we are building our data infrastructure @GoCardlessEng, as we wrote about in December. We'll have more posts coming soon :) medium.com/p/238041e35698

@wong_jim If you would like to make a formal complaint, please contact people@gocardless.com. 2/2

@wong_jim Diversity and inclusion are of the utmost importance to GoCardless. We do not tolerate any level of racist behaviour within our teams. We are confident that we have lived up to our values in this situation and stand by our actions. 1/2

To help people facing similar challenges, we’re open-sourcing our “Getting Started” tutorial, which is what we ask all GoCardless developers to follow during their onboarding. See how our tools work together to enable deployment of a service into GKE. medium.com/gocardless-tec…

My team at @GoCardlessEng has been working on a fresh take on our infrastructure tools. Part of that work was building out a service registry- checkout this blog post on why we created ours, and the types of problems you can solve with one. blog.lawrencejones.dev/service-regist…

Changing your database schema is scary. One wrong move and you bring the site down. Today, we're open sourcing the tool we built to take away that fear. Introducing Nandi: gocardless.com/blog/fear-free…

When it comes to debugging performance problems, you have to leave your expectations at the door. @cristiangreco did just that when he used our observability stack to figure out why some requests to the same API were 350ms slower than others! gocardless.com/blog/observabi…

Really enjoyed talking about this with you folks! Thank you @rubyfuza #rubyfuza

@dmagliola @rubyfuza always measure before you optimize. Sometimes the things you hear are assumptions. 😍
