Offboarding: Self checklist

Sometimes it happens… Let’s do it properly! The checklist below will help the team stay productive after a team member has left.

It will also ensure that both the team member and IxDF have peace of mind by helping to dispose of everything that is subject to the NDA agreement.

Checklist

Legend:

Actions:

Review all pending pull requests (PRs) assigned to you as a reviewer or delegate the review to other developers.
💣 Complete all PRs created by you. If it's not possible for some reason, delegate your PR(s) to other developers and provide all required information such as what you have done, what should be done, why it's blocked, domain specifications, etc. Recommendation: have a call to share more details and ensure your colleague understands everything and is able to complete your PR.
Reassign GitHub issues to other developers using code owners document. Update them if there is something to add, such as more context or the current state. The more context you provide, the better. Like with PRs, for big issues, it's better to provide more information using a video call with your colleagues.
Remove your old/stale branches from GitHub after first checking that they don’t have associated PRs.
💣 Remove all IxDF repositories from all your computers (mind the NDA 👮).
💣 Delete all copies and dumps of application DBs (any version) such as Docker containers, VMs, or local ones (mind the NDA 👮).
💣 Destroy Docker containers and VMs since they may contain sensitive information (mind the NDA 👮).
Remove your phone from downnotifier.com.
