Working with Shape Up in a Product Collective – Marin Petrov (Products at Camplight)

Shapers & Builders - A podcast by David Arens

Categories:

Today I am speaking with Marin Petrov who's part of Camplight, a collective of people working together on software projects and products. Within Camplight, Marin and his team is working on Assista, a trello powerup for better time tracking.This conversation is part of a series about companies that use Shape Up, a delivery framework originally created at Basecamp. If you've never heard of Shape Up, check the show notes for a link to the video "Shaping in a nutshell" by Ryan Singer, former head of strategy at Basecamp and author of the book "Shape Up - Stop Running in Circles and Ship Work that Matters".In our conversation, Marin explains why Shape Up felt like such a natural fit for the team working on Assista, and how it gave them great language to activities like Shaping. It was fascinating for me to learn about Camplight's setup as a "collective", a way of working together that feels like an "indie hacker, but together" kind of approach.Enjoy!Links:Marin on Twitter: https://twitter.com/marinwavesCamplight: https://camplight.net/Shaping in a nutshell: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_8M23wVjXkShapers & Builders job board: https://www.shapers.builders
