Leading GitHub to a $7.5 billion acquisition (Interview)
About this episode
Jason Warner (CTO at GitHub) joined the show to talk with us about the backstory of how he helped to lead GitHub to a $7.5 billion acquisition by Microsoft. Specifically how they trusted their gut not just the data, and how they understood the value they were bringing to market. We also talk about Jason's focus on "horizon 3" for GitHub, and his thoughts on remote work and how they're leading GitHub engineering today.
