Ask HN: How to manage remote development teams?
So Im struggling a bit, I'm now working with colleagues from the US from EU. We have a partner project with them but the thing is I kinda struggle to get a feel to work with them.
I do ocasionally have meetings with them, they record standups and I watch them, but how can I improve my involement and not feel like a outsourced resource or a freelancer. Because our companies still do the work together..
Are there some good to know things in general for this type of issue? more frequent communications. join more standups: have a schedule with them. be more available mutually. what is the timezone overlap between you and the rest ? So I finish work at 17:00 - 17:30 and their standup is in 18:15 my time... Sometimes I say a bit late and join it but can't do it every day..
