Session Abstract

Software products rarely stay clean. Over time, they accumulate technical debt, layered workarounds, and tightly coupled dependencies that make even straightforward changes feel risky. When you’re responsible for a complex, long-running platform, modernization isn’t just about how to upgrade it. It’s about deciding what truly deserves to change.

This session explores how blending product thinking with software modernization leads to smarter decisions. Drawing on real-world lessons from a long-running SaaS platform, Brian will walk through how to evaluate tradeoffs through the lens of product strategy, user impact, and business value, and how to balance technical constraints with customer expectations while continuing to ship. Whether you’re leading a legacy transformation or trying to prevent one, this talk provides a practical framework for making strategic modernization decisions without forcing the business to pause innovation.
