Our Speaker Will Be Thomas DePierre (joining us from France):

From EE to SRE, with stops in the software engineer teams and even starting a company, Thomas Depierre journey has been vast. French, SRE, Elixir dev, freelancer sometimes, and lover of cats and tea. Particularly interested in system thinking, incidents, and Resilience Engineering, Thomas love to listen to war stories. He is now trying to make better tools for software operators and developers to cope with the complexity of their work. If you do elixir, you probably run his code or have benefited from his help in the elixir-lang slack
