Liora Friedberg is a Production Engineer at Jane Street with a
background in economics and computer science. In this episode,
Liora and Ron discuss how production engineering blends
high-stakes puzzle solving with thoughtful software engineering,
as the people doing support build tools to make that support less
necessary. They also discuss how Jane Street uses both tabletop
simulation and hands-on exercises to train Production Engineers;
what skills effective Production Engineers have in common; and
how to create a culture where people aren’t blamed for making
costly mistakes.
