yeah sure so that was a time when I had a you know we had a program which you
know which was a very critical for our organization where a customer was
demanding the you know product launch within the 9 months during that time there
was a hero Hardware schedule you know which was very aggressive because for
software features we can do OTA but the hardware is something we have to make
sure that it's aligned with the hardware Milestone and all the software
capabilities are present so at that time I work with my first of all I work with
the you know my OEM odm or developing the hardware I understood their I
understood their you know Hardware development process and gather the
information about the what software you know features are required for each
Hardware milestone then I work within with my team and I may I give them all the
icon with all the messages that this is the you know software features required
and try to understand the timeline from the software team that where we can
deliver what after that you know evaluation you know we came to know that there
is a potential gap of you know two to three weeks in our Hardware milestone in
order to in order to close that Gap what I did is I you know I went back with
you know with the hardware team and said hey you know for example for live TV
where you know you you are expecting us to have the live TV up and ready but you
know the live TV stack will take time to get developed so why can't we just you
know Drive the you don't have a live TV signal testing or at the board level in
the beginning and then we can you know work with the software team to at least
unblock you with that development and that can meet the current time line and
you know the the full live TV and functionality testing can be done into the
second Hardware release which were planned after the 6 weeks so in order to I
normally prefer that I normally prefer to you know put down all the you know
task in jira and you're not clear all the you know create all the subtask and
try to identify which are the must have for a hardware development which are the
good to have and which are the future completely for the future completeness and
then we work up with the whatever I must to have first to develop and you know
we deliver that on the continuous you know basis to the hardware team and then
we can you know give them the you know subsequent releases you know from the
software side that can deliver the answer for the hardware testing you know part
so that is my normal way of communicating that is a normal way of communicating
the the hardware software Milestone you know in the development process
