Onboarding

Welcome to the team. This page is the checklist for your first two weeks.

Day one

• Get added to the GitHub org
• Get added to the team Slack / chat
• Get a copy of the team handbook
• Meet your onboarding buddy
• Set up your development environment (see below)

Week one

• Read the architecture overview
• Clone the main repos and get them running locally
• Ship a small change — a typo fix in this wiki counts
• Shadow a deployment
• 1:1 with your manager to set 30/60/90 day goals

Development environment

TODO: fill this in with your actual stack. A good structure:

1. Language toolchain — version manager, required versions
2. Services — databases, caches, message brokers you need running locally
3. Secrets — where to get them, how to load them
4. First run — the exact commands to get from clone to running app

Who does what

TODO: a small table of teams / squads and what they own, so new people know who to ask about what.
