Russell Stephens was the Mobile Infrastructure Lead at Compass, a company that builds software for real estate agents. They have two tracks for mobile developers: feature-based roles for helping the product teams iterate on specific feature sets and a dedicated team for mobile infrastructure, where developers are responsible for maintaining and iterating on the mobile platform.

In this episode, we talked to Russell about his previous team’s CI journey, from the struggles of hosting an on-premise Jenkins solution to building a cutting-edge case of mobile infrastructure on Bitrise. We explored how their responsibilities have shifted from the team to the platform: whether it’s a beta build or delivering to the App Store, the team now has the entire process of building, testing, code signing, and shipping automated. We also discussed how the switch has impacted their day-to-day job, their team structure, and how it resulted in an increase in agility and productivity.
