I’m a startup co-founder, so day to day can be a lot of different things. But it’s something like this: 1. log on to Slack in the morning and see if there’s anything that needs attention. We use slack as a central hub. All of our tools funnel activity into slack. My team is small (3 full time, 2 part time contractors). Most of my team works over night and into the morning (very different time zones). Typically when I wake up, there’s a few PRs for me to review, or questions to answer on a ticket in linear. We also have a check in bot that runs once per week. No real need to do daily checkins. 2. After I catch up and respond to any questions (which most likely will be read by people that night or the next day) I see if I have any sales meetings. Since we’re a startup it’s still founders in sales mode. I might have a demo or 2 each day. This is probably my only non-async activity. 3. Outside of sales work, I also write code, review design work, and field customer support questions. So the rest of my day is a buffet of random stuff. As far as politics go. There really isn’t any. The team is pretty small. We might have a disagreement on how a feature should be implemented or something like that, but I’m the deciding factor and everyone is a professional so it’s not a problem.
