Reasoning about developer productivity

Speaker: Otto Hilska

The three pillars provide a framework for measuring and improving engineering effectiveness across three interlinked perspectives: business outcomes, developer productivity, and developer experience.

Your operating system as a design problem

Speaker: John Cutler

We tend to think of ways of working as a boring process question. In this talk, John will challenge that belief by offering an alternative perspective grounded in service design, behavior design, platform thinking, and more.

Get better at getting better

Speaker: Nathen Harvey

Nathen shares insights about software delivery performance metrics and the surprising impacts of AI adoption on development teams. His presentation reveals that while AI increases developer job satisfaction and flow, it can temporarily decrease overall throughput and stability.

5 things I wish I would have known sooner about scaling

Speaker: Meri Williams

Having scaled a number of teams at different speeds, Meri talks through some of the inflection points you’ll experience, how to navigate them, and reflect on all the things they wish they’d known earlier.
