Paving the Road: Enhancing Developer Productivity and Experience

Wednesday 29 March · 5 sessions, 50 minutes each

About the track

Engineering enablement teams in organizations can start with building tools to do jobs that help developers across the organization and shine when there are dedicated teams making engineering communities effective with a range of tools, processes and guides. This can have an impact on productivity and happiness, profits and retention. More organizations are moving to a model where engineering enablement teams provide the path of least resistance to solve non-differentiating tasks across the organization rather than having a mandate that they work on. This makes user centricity critical for engineering enablement teams and it includes the process for product development, the culture that governs the internal activity of these teams, and how teams are structured.

We will hear from some companies that are investing not just in enabling tools but treating their engineering enablement teams like product teams with user centricity at the heart of how they operate
