Modelling Developer Infrastructure Teams - Shopify

What this post added

This post introduces a model for organizing Developer Infrastructure teams by categorizing them into horizontally integrated teams (supporting the entire develop-validate-deploy cycle) and vertically integrated teams (specializing in specific technology stacks across multiple workflow phases). It analyzes the implications of these structures on scale, scope, and collaboration, and proposes avenues for future development (Concentration, Expansion, Interfacing) to inform organizational strategy.
