I happen to be in the building so I sat in on an engineering review for a proposed new GKE feature today. Tim was there, as was Brian Grant, and pretty much everyone else you've heard of (in the room or on the VC). There were also a good number of PMs, SREs, and the leads/engineers working on the GKE machinery.
Thus I have to respectfully disagree.
- rpbo 9y agoCan confirm, this is my experience as well.
- hueving 9y agoEngineering review is not the same thing as reviewing and writing code. I've seen countless projects with sound designs riddled with implementation bugs due to people not fully understanding the intent of certain systems. Sitting in a room during a high level engineering review falls squarely under "limited overlap".
- crb 9y agoWell, you can trust me that it doesn't, or you can send me your CV for a referral. Plus, there's this: https://www.quora.com/What-is-Googles-internal-code-review-policy-process https://www.quora.com/What-is-Googles-internal-code-review-p.... But you'll just complain that the OWNERS aren't the right people, and I'll just comment that they are.
