Welcome back to the DevOps Toolchain podcast! In this episode, host Joe Colantonio is joined by Temil Sanchez, a Product Manager at SmartBear, for a deep dive into how quality truly becomes a team effort—especially when aligning development, QA, and product teams within agile API environments.
Together, they explore the evolution and surge in API adoption, the unique challenges of collaborating on APIs in agile settings, and the importance of closing feedback loops to deliver reliable software faster.
Temil shares his journey from QA engineering to product management, offers insights on bridging the gaps between technical and non-technical roles, and provides details on how SmartBear’s new API Hub aims to unify teams across the API lifecycle.
Additionally, discover the latest platform innovations, including contract testing, collaboration features, and AI-powered design tools that make API quality accessible to everyone—developers, testers, and even product managers.
If you’ve ever struggled with fragmented processes or siloed teams in your API projects, this episode is packed with practical tips and tools to level up your DevOps practice.
