On this episode, I chat with Amanda Donohue who I met during my time at Meta Facebook. Amanda leads the Stripe enablement organization which is a team of engineers and program managers who build tools and programs that focus on how Stripes do work. Her team owns surfaces that focus on the software development lifecycle and collaboration. Amanda joined Stripe to lead the centralized TPM org.
She's now the TPgM functional leader for the company. Previously, Amanda held TPM leadership roles at Meta Infrastructure Organization.
Amanda has had an interesting journey to becoming the leader today. On this episode, she talks about building confidence to work with engineering without a technical degree, adapting TPM organizational structure to the business needs and the need for broader TPM community.
