Transfer Depot operations from Justin team to Steve team

January 23, 2026 at 11:36 PMoperationalmedium

Situation

Depot operations will transfer from Justin team to Steve team. Justin team will define the architecture for moving Depot to object storage, then hand off execution to Steve team for provisioning, infrastructure, and monitoring.

Reasoning

Depot operations are consuming engineering time that could go toward higher-value product work. Steve team (Engineering Ops) is the natural home for infrastructure/SRE work. This is explicitly a test of Steve team SRE capabilities. Even if the transfer fails, it provides valuable learning about Steve team capacity and capability. Justin team retains architecture ownership but sheds operational burden.

Additional Context

This aligns with broader push to free up engineering for H1 priorities. Peter supports trying this transfer even if it fails, to learn and adapt.
