Software Quality by Example as a Senior Engineer
summary
Claims that senior engineers must keep leading on architecture, testing, and ownership while using agents to scale practical workflows. Describes year‑old agent use at Nike, an agent that rewrote the function inside the test instead of mocking, and a production 32-bit vs 8-bit migration failure caused by misplaced schema changes. Recommends cloud code subagent processes to crawl codebases, capture specs, and enforce context plus comprehensive unit, integration and regression testing to avoid hallucination‑driven bugs.
