Lekko and Dynamic Configuration with Konrad Niemiec

Software Engineering Daily

Feature flagging tools have grown in popularity as a way to decouple releases and deployment, but they can introduce their own long-term problems and tech debt.

Lekko is a startup democratizing the practice of dynamic configuration. Their motivating idea is to empower engineers to focus on software releases, and business teams and other stakeholders to shape deployment.

Konrad Niemiec is the Founder and CEO at Lekko. He previously worked at Uber where an internal tool called Flipr enabled dynamic configuration management, and which today serves as a key design inspiration for Lekko. Konrad joins the show with Sean Falconer to talk about his company and the technology they’re developing.
