How shallshould a senior programmer monitor newanother senior programmer?

We gotI'm working with a new senior withprogrammer who has almost the same yearsamount of experience like myselfas me. He got his own project to work on while-- but I have to make sure he does not mess things up.

Now, how can I monitor him since he's not junior?

Do I examine his code? Cons of this are that I am not as deep into project as himself so it's time consuming for me (have my own project besides this).

Do I only do QA from the perspective of another senior?

Any advise here is appreciated. I was recently in the same situation where I relied that another senior will handle all tickets properly, and then it took me 3 weeks to fix his oversights. So I do not want to be in the same situation again.
