Engineering ·Team Q2 2026
Improve deployment efficiency and developer velocity
1
Reduce CI/CD pipeline time from 8 min to under 4 min
2
Implement end-to-end testing for all critical services
3
Merge request cycle time down from 3 days to 1.5 days


Developer velocity is a compounding advantage — small improvements to pipeline time and review cycles add up to significantly more output over a quarter. This OKR creates concrete benchmarks across the full deployment chain.


Three steps to get started

🎯
Measure pipeline time and MR cycle time in week 1 to confirm your baselines match the targets.
🔧
E2E testing for 'all critical services' requires defining which services are critical before the quarter starts.
📊
MR cycle time reduction requires process changes as much as tooling — agree on review expectations as a team.
