Subject: Discover CIO Amir Arooni on shifting to product-based IT delivery

In our latest episode of the Tech Whisperers podcast, Amir Arooni shared a bit about his ambitious Runway initiative, a five-pillar strategy designed to elevate his organization “from 40,000 to 80,000 feet.” As he explained it, Runway is about “reinventing the technology function and changing the way we work — not just in the technology function, but the whole value chain at Discover. That’s the aim of our transformation.”

As I said, ambitious! After the show, Amir went into more detail about each of the five pillars: reliability, extreme automation, highly skilled engineering workforce, shifting to a product-oriented way of working, and employee experience. Don’t miss this exclusive bonus content with more on Runway and how it’s helping Discover do more and deliver faster.
