Automation Changes Conversation

Presented by Jack Skinner (@developerjack)

As developers and technologists we all love automation. But it’s not just about making our lives easier and quicker – it changes tech and workplace culture. This talk discusses how workflow and deployment automation changed a slow moving and scared-to-change engineering team into a fast paced team who accidentally rebuilt their project thanks to automation.

This talk discusses the culture change experienced by an engineering team after implementing an automation-first approach to development. I share what we did, what changed and what we learned during the process with the aim to encourage and enable attendees to ‘try it at home’.
