Dev Interrupted

Dev Interrupted sits at the intersection of software engineering and engineering leadership, and it has carved out a unique space there since launching in 2020. Produced by LinearB, the show runs about 270 episodes deep with a two-part weekly schedule: Tuesday episodes feature interviews with tech founders, CTOs, and engineering directors, while Friday roundups cover the week's biggest news in AI and software development. The guest roster is strong. Recent episodes have included the CEO of Warp discussing how AI agents are straining GitHub infrastructure, a member of OpenAI's Codex team talking about agentic autonomy, Spotify's Head of Technology on developer portals, and engineering leaders from Slack and Netflix. Hosts Andrew and Ben keep conversations grounded in practical reality rather than abstract theory — you will hear about actual team structures, real metrics, and specific decisions these leaders made. The show has leaned heavily into the AI-native development conversation recently, exploring topics like vibe coding, autonomous agents, and how code review workflows need to adapt when AI generates a growing share of pull requests. With a 4.8 star rating from 146 reviews, it has become a go-to for engineering managers and senior ICs who want to stay current on how the role of software engineering leadership is evolving. Episodes run 30 to 60 minutes.
