Hi all!
Starting this Monday, we’re experimenting with: formal backend design review sign-off required for all new projects involving backend code. This is indicated in the new review sign-off table in the newest Project Spec (Product Requirement Confluence template).
Initiate design review by tagging @backend-arch-board in #technology channel, together with link to your Project Spec. Then they will private message you to schedule calendar invite.
We will use this checklist. This is a continually improved living document.

Why in #technology, not in #backend channel? Because projects at Traveloka are typically cross-functional, and I believe people from other teams will also like to see updates on the projects.
In the first few weeks, expect design review to be rather chaotic, until the board gets the grasp on how to this right and efficiently. We really appreciate the first few projects that get involved for pilot project! Thanks!
The board currently consists of: Yoga, Sergei, Denni, Kevin, Andy, Fajrin, Rendy, and myself. Not all of them will need to attend every review.
