How do you communicate technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders?
I avoid jargon and focus on the impact. For example, when we chose to implement
server-side caching using Redis, I explained it to the product owner as “improving response
times for users and reducing load on our database.” I often use analogies or quick
visuals—like diagrams—to bridge the gap. If they understand the “why” behind a decision,
they’re usually fully supportive.
