This panel discussion, featuring Jenna, Director of Engineering, Reliability Platforms at Canva and Andrew, Head of Engineering at Atlassian, explored the challenges and strategies of implementing standardization in large tech companies. Atlassian, known for its software development and collaboration tools, initially faced resistance to standardization but shifted as inefficiencies and compliance issues emerged. Canva, a graphic design platform, highlighted the balance between flexibility and standardization, using observability tools for accountability.

The discussion emphasizes early standardization, top-down sponsorship, and clear communication to ensure smoother transitions and better adoption of new practices, crucial for managing large-scale operations and facilitating innovation.
