How Others Perceive Devs and DevOps by Cassandra Leung
“Who is Jenkins?”
“I thought dockers and containers were used in transport and logistics - aren’t you a developer?”
“Why do you have puppets at work?”
“Why is there a vagrant in your office?”
“What are you talking about??”
If you’re reading this, you probably understand the double-meanings behind words like Jenkins, Docker, Puppet, and Vagrant. However, for those working outside the technology space - and even for some within it - it can seem very strange to use these terms in the context of development and technology. So, what do other people think of developers and DevOps? Do your colleagues in product or customer support teams understand what it takes for you to get a feature or fix deployed? What was the recruiter thinking when they wrote that job spec? Do the people trying to get into the technology industry right now even know what they’re in for? It just so happens that I was in all of those roles at one point or another: product owner, tech support specialist, recruiter, aspiring technologist, and more. I can give you some insight into what I thought developers and DevOps were all about while in each of these positions. Although it might seem somewhat obvious or self-explanatory to you now that you clearly understand them, you may find that when speaking to other people about DevOps or your job as a developer, people who aren’t directly involved in these things might just seem more confused, the longer the conversation goes on. Join my session to find out how others perceive devs and DevOps, how you can better communicate technical concepts to the people around you, and why doing so benefits you too.
