Talk Short Description
Scaling a site-reliability culture from the ground up at a hyper-growth, resource-constrained startup is a uniquely challenging endeavor: plenty of playbooks exist, yet every startup’s socio-technical reality is its own puzzle. And while “reliability is the most important feature” rings true, tight deadlines and shifting priorities often sideline proactive reliability initiatives. Thus, since these cycles are a precious commodity, ensuring their success is paramount.
By retracing our SLO adoption journey, highlighting failures, missteps, and near wins en route to our eventual breakthrough, we uncover an effective litmus test for gauging readiness, or recognizing when a team isn’t quite there yet.
Today, this readiness framework guides how we assess the timing of reliability investments at Spring Health. It also serves as a practical tool for teams in fast-growing engineering orgs still early in their reliability journey, especially those navigating similar constraints.
