A Brief History of Release Engineering
Thursday October 31, 2024 11:45 - 12:05 GMT
The Liffey A
Dinah McNutt, MongoDB


TL;DR This talk is a humorous (hopefully) retrospective on release engineering. How did we get from building binaries using a command line to all the fancy CI/CD systems we have today?

Things we used to do seem ridiculous today. Can looking back help us move forward? What’s the evolution and career path of a release engineer? Has the role become diluted through overuse and misuse?

Please join in the fun and include your anecdotes and experiences in the slack channel.
