Shipping Kiwi Dials

  • SolutionsIQ

Presented by Peter Moon

Development on Kiwi Dials started in June, 2015. Seven months later, the product launched simultaneously on iOS, Android, and Windows Phone on a common Azure cloud platform. Kiwi Dials is a boot-strapped startup. Find out how Peter and a globally distributed team organized themselves to ship working software every week. Learn how the team integrated design, user-testing, weekly retrospectives, and backlog grooming to balance features, architecture, operations, reporting, and new requirements.
