Meet Nic Goodall - Building High-Performing Engineering Teams That Scale

In a world where teams scale fast but delivery quietly slows down, Nic Goodall, Head of Engineering at DrDoctor, brings a grounded, no-drama view of what makes engineering teams actually perform. He doesn’t start with frameworks. He starts with reality, how people work together, how decisions get made, and what happens to culture when new hires join. In his conversation on The Executive Outlook, Nic shares why high-performing teams don’t happen by luck; they’re designed through clarity, intentional hiring, and leadership that coaches instead of rescuing. He explains how “speed” becomes risky when quality isn’t protected, why culture drift is expensive, and why a team changes the moment one new person joins. He also breaks down his practical 30-60-90 day approach: observe first, remove friction, improve developer experience, and use simple metrics to guide better decisions. For Nic, great engineering isn’t just about shipping faster. It’s about building trust, alignment, and a team culture that scales without breaking.
