Describes daily pairing with business analysts and testers at LMAX that cuts ramp time to six months versus a decade, captures domain knowledge and trade-offs, and produces higher-quality, consensual designs. Recommends occasional mob programming for complex problems and cites JetBrains IntelliJ as a concrete tool used.
