Shifting Left in post Covid19 era

Abubakar's story is truly inspirational. Coming from northern Nigeria, where opportunities are very few and far between. His passion and talent for tech, hasn’t gone unnoticed and works as a Technical Program Manager for GitLab remotely, which is pretty cool!

His talk will discuss the challenges posed by the COVID 19 pandemic towards companies development lifecycles. Ways in which continuous delivery has had to change direction on processes that were not prepared for, creating security and quality risks. Also, looking at how ‘shifting left’ can help by permitting quality assurance checks early on and making it part of the development process, instead of an after-thought.
