About the Author

Joao Uchoa
Hi, I am Joao Uchoa (or Jampa Uchoa), an engineering leader and entrepreneur with over a decade spent building and guiding high-performing teams. I've led teams across startups and high-growth companies through complex projects, scaling challenges, and organizational change.
In The Art of Engineering Management, I provide practical, hands-on advice on the finer details of the engineering manager role. While other books are excellent (and you should check them out), they do not explore the direct management of engineers and day-to-day operations.
As you'll discover in this book, the engineering manager role is incredibly flexible. Your ultimate goal is to do whatever it takes to make your team successful.
I firmly believe that "information should be free", which is why all the content in this book is open source.
