Description
Diary of a CTO, formerly known as The Engineering Success Podcast, is a show about the real stories behind technology leadership. Hosted by Himanshu Saxena, the podcast features candid conversations with CTOs, engineering leaders, founders, and technical operators on scaling teams, making hard technical decisions, adopting AI, improving developer productivity, and leading through uncertainty. It is less about polished success stories and more about what actually happens behind the scenes when technology leaders build, break, learn, and grow.
