In 2019, Anthony Alaribe led a legacy service rewrite at Delivery Hero which turned out poorly, due to a single missing field that no one knew about. That mistake caused an almost $2 million loss for the company. This talk will explore that journey, including Anthony’s retrospective, and how he devised an algorithm to automatically catch future breaking changes or missing fields across arbitrary APIs to ensure that kind of issue never happens again.
