Closing Keynote
summary
A career story of deliberate relearning and tooling: launches include seven projects in five months and about ten prototypes for a campaign, a product pushed live by July 17 for the counter convention despite a CI slowdown, and a fact‑checking release that succeeds under pressure. Work spans Python, Lua, Gradle, immutable AMIs on AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, Jenkins and Ethereum Solidity (including claiming first female certified ethereum solidity developer from a course). Advocacy for a structured design review that involved 30 engineers on a two‑week build and for cross‑functional DevOps plus communication as the real secret skill.
