Talk26: Engineering practices at scale

📣 What is the meetup about?

As we promised the next Talk26 meetup in September, here it is!
This time we’ve invited our Principal Engineers to talk about how we handle the release process of our mobile apps and how Backstage helps us stay on top of our services.

The talks are:

1. Know your services with Backstage
How Backstage helps us stay on top of our services

2. Cut costs by releasing your mobile apps often
How we went from the chaos of releasing “whenever we have something ready” 💥 to the calm cruises of automated release trains 🚄

Join us to listen to our experienced engineers and take the chance to grab a beer with them in case you are interested in what Principal Engineers do at N26.

Would you be interested in hearing more about those topics? We would be happy to see you and discuss your take on this topic.
