Conversations with the Leaders Inventing the Future

The SDLC has changed forever. We're learning about the new normal by talking to the people inventing what comes next.

“Curiosity drives the willingness to change. We can’t get set in our ways because change happens quickly.”

Rob Zuber CTO, CircleCI

AI is rewriting the rules of every industry. In a world of deepfakes and slop, CTO Studio is prioritizing high-touch, in-person interviews to uncover the signal amid the noise. Every week, we invite the CTOs, VPs of Engineering, product leaders, and technical founders who are building through this massive shift. Join us to deep dive into what's got them excited, what keeps them up at night, and how these new tools are affecting their approach to hiring, team building, and the SDLC.
