Where Legacy Code
Meets Expert Guidance.

You're stuck in legacy code — slow delivery, constant bugs, and nothing you or your team has tried (AI included) has fixed it. Transforming a real codebase, and getting your team behind the change, is a different challenge entirely. Optivem Group Coaching gives you live expert guidance every two weeks.

The Problem

You've tried everything.
The legacy code won't budge.

Working in legacy code is relentless pressure — stressful deliveries, slipping deadlines, and fresh bugs every time you touch code no one fully understands.

01

You're alone with your legacy codebase

Just you and hundreds of thousands of lines of untested, tangled code — and the pressure to keep shipping without breaking it.

02

Theory doesn't map to reality

Sandbox examples are clean. Your production codebase is not. The gap between them is where progress stalls.

03

There's no one to ask

AI answers confidently — with no idea of your architecture or your constraints. Your team hasn't been here yet. You need someone who has, and who can see the whole picture.

What You Get

Expert guidance,
every two weeks.

No curriculum. No slides. Just live Q&A on what you're actually working on.

Fortnightly Live Q&A

Every two weeks, bring the real challenges you're facing at work. We work through them using open-source or sandbox examples — concrete, applicable answers, not generic theory.

About Your Coach

Valentina
Jemuović

Technical Coach at Optivem. Years spent helping engineering teams adopt ATDD and modernize legacy systems without years of expensive trial and error.

"Teams aren't stuck for lack of theory. They're stuck because no one's shown them how to apply it to real, legacy code."

Creator of the ATDD Accelerator and Pipeline Accelerator programs. Worked directly with engineering teams across Europe and North America. Optivem Group Coaching brings that same hands-on support to any engineer or team fighting through legacy code.

FAQ

Common questions.

Do I need to have completed an Optivem course to join?
No — open to any senior engineer or tech lead actively working on legacy code modernization. Prior course experience is helpful but not required.
What if I can't make the live calls?
All calls are recorded. You'll have full replay access — watch at your own pace, on your schedule.
What topics are covered on the calls?
Whatever you're working on. ATDD, CI/CD, Hexagonal Architecture, Clean Architecture — driven by your real questions, not a fixed curriculum.
What's the difference between Public and Private membership?
Public membership is a shared community — calls alongside engineers from other companies, with questions explored using open-source or sandbox code. Private membership is exclusively for your team — dedicated calls, no outside attendees, and you work directly on your company's real codebase in full confidence.
Can I cancel anytime?
Public monthly membership cancels anytime. Annual memberships are non-refundable. Private memberships require 30 days notice.
When are the calls scheduled?
Sessions are held fortnightly, with dates and times announced in advance. We aim for a window of 3pm–6pm CET/CEST (9am–12pm ET), though exact timing varies and sessions may be rescheduled to a different day. All sessions are recorded in full — replay access always included.
Can I share my company's code on the public calls?
Public calls use open-source or sandbox examples — your proprietary codebase stays private. If you want to work directly on your company's real code, the Private membership is designed for exactly that.
