I regularly speak at conferences, meetups, and on podcasts about software architecture, engineering practices, and technical leadership. Here's a collection of my talks and presentations.
8 talks · 7 conferences
Walking through the security implications of decomposing monoliths into microservices: new attack surfaces, container hardening, supply-chain risk, and the operational practices that close the gaps.
Panel on keeping competitive intelligence programs alive past the launch deck: cadence, signal-to-noise, who owns the work, and how to feed insights back into positioning and pricing.
How GitLab keeps CI workloads agnostic of any specific cloud provider — and why that matters as cloud-native development keeps growing. Talk on assessing software development efforts to understand the benefits of moving to (and across) the cloud.
Showcased GitLab as a single-application DevOps platform — version control, CI/CD, security scanning, and deployment in one tool. Conversations with attendees focused on consolidation, the cost of toolchain sprawl, and the shift toward platform thinking.
Panel and presentation on the cloud-native DevOps stack — version control, CI/CD, GitOps, and the shift from siloed tools to platforms.
Talk on the intersection of big data tooling, AI, and the developer experience around managing dependencies and reproducibility at scale.
How biicode brought package-manager ergonomics (à la Ruby Gems or PyPI) to C and C++, and why dependency management was the missing primitive for modern C++ collaboration.
Workshop on early-stage product and go-to-market strategy for app and developer-tool startups.
