GoFundMe measures engineering velocity in help delivered
GoFundMe exists to help people help each other. For Arnie Katz, Chief Product and Technology Officer, that mission has a direct operational translation: every week of cycle time cut, every backlog ticket cleared, every feature shipped faster helps more money flowing to the people and nonprofits who need it. With a team of 400 technologists and those stakes, velocity isn't a vanity metric, it's imperative.
