Onboarding

Here’s what your Week 1 will look like at WORKOPTI.

Day 1: Welcome + Access + Orientation

Welcome call — team intro
Setup check-in with your engineering lead
Confirm access: Entra ID, corporate email, GitHub, Basecamp, Azure DevOps, Azure read-only
Read employee handbook and engineering handbook
Understand company priorities, product overview, high-level architecture
Get your local dev environment set up

Get local dev environment running (frontend, backend, database) — see Tech Stack and Infrastructure docs
Get assigned a starter task to explore codebase and workflows
Follow the Workflow doc: small PR, tests, orval regen if needed
Get at least one review; deploy to dev and validate
1:1 with your engineering lead (Tuesday) — setup check, starter task review, any blockers
Mid-week Engineering Sync (Wednesday) — the team’s checkpoint against Monday’s plan; join to see how the week is tracked
Goal is to get your dev environment, our PR process, and our review flow working end to end

Review your first PR with your engineering lead — what went well, what to adjust
CTO Chat (Friday) — sit in on the team’s weekly demo and roadmap session. You’re there to watch how demo Friday works, not to present.
Open Q&A on the codebase: architecture, conventions, anything unclear from the week
Debugging and observability: read Azure Monitor traces/metrics for a dev deploy

From Week 2, you’re on the team’s normal rhythm — see Cadence for the full weekly schedule.
