Brendan O'Leary 
Speaker
Not your typical tech speaker. From Apollo to Legos to Black Mirror, you won't find a "boring deck with code" here.
Technologist
From bricking my first Tandy computer (sorry Dad) to building side apps people love, I have experience tinkering and building from scratch.
DevOps Expert
My philosophy on software delivery comes from hard-won experience in a variety of industries. I've seen what works and what DOESN'T.
Work
My entire career, my passion has been driven by the ability to level up engineers.
Originally this was as an Engineering and Product Manager at several software companies, but more recently, I've been privileged to work on developer tooling directly at GitLab. In 2020, I changed roles to be a Developer Evangelist at GitLab, and you can find my 2020 Developer Evangelist Plan here.
