Managing Technical Debt in Fast-Growing Startups
2024-12-01·8 min read
Technical debt is not inherently bad. Strategic technical debt is a tool — you consciously take shortcuts to move faster, with a plan to address them later.
The key is to make debt visible. Keep a tech debt register. Tag code with TODOs that reference tickets. Schedule regular debt reduction sprints.
The most dangerous debt is accidental — code that is messy not by choice but by ignorance. Combat this with code reviews, coding standards, and pair programming.
