Engineering Onboarding overview

Event-driven workflow triggered by a new engineer's first day that guides them through their first 30-60-90 days at the company. The engineering manager assigns an onboarding buddy, schedules key introductory meetings with product, design, and cross-functional partners, and provides access to all necessary systems and tools. The new hire completes structured learning milestones covering the codebase architecture, development workflows, testing practices, and on-call processes. Their first coding contributions are scoped as low-risk starter tasks that build familiarity with the CI/CD pipeline and code review culture. Regular check-ins track progress and surface blockers early so the engineer reaches full productivity quickly.
