"L'importance ne réside plus uniquement dans l'écriture de code, mais dans la capacité à exprimer des concepts systèmes et à conceptualiser les solutions."

Episode in English // Premier épisode en anglais d'If This Then Dev

The D.E.V. of the week is Marcel Weekes, VP of Engineering at Figma.

Marcel shares what it means to lead a global engineering team while keeping collaboration, creativity, and quality at the core. We discuss how Figma bridges designers, developers, and AI &mdash and how this unique culture shapes the way software gets built.

From managing tech debt at scale to integrating AI-driven code generation, Marcel reflects on how roles are evolving, why feedback is an art form, and what agility really means when your product is collaboration itself.

A sincere and grounded conversation on leadership, complexity, and the human side of engineering.
