I come from Ruby on Rails world at a medium sized software company. I think we got a lot of leverage from how good our wrapper was around sidekiq. We asked our engineers to break down their business logic into small to medium idempotent "jobs" and then we'd give them a class they could inherit from that would hook up all the alerting / observability / rate limiting / retry / SLA stuff.

I really liked the "Job Queue" abstraction, because it gave our engineers a good mental framework to think about scalable computter processes. Curious if there's some parallel where the workers are humans instead of ruby processes?

yes! One of my original thoughts was "Job queue, but for humans"
