Welcome to Platform Engineers Dallas!
This is a group for engineers to learn and discuss all things internal tooling, platform teams and internal developer platforms. Every week, we interview some of the best DevOps minds in the industry.
We recently launched our new home, where you can find expert talk recordings, platform tooling resources and links to upcoming events. Check it out at https://platformengineering.org/
Our Slack community is the largest dedicated platform engineering community out there. If you want to dive deeper and connect with other platform nerds đ join here!
If you would like to speak at one of our meetups, use this form to submit a talk request.
Good to have you onboard!

**STREAM LINK WILL BE PUBLISHED 09:00 AM (CDT TIME ZONE) ON JUNE 8th**
#PlatformCon2023 INCOMING! âïž Very soon the top DevOps and platform engineering leaders will meet on one virtual stage for just two days. As a reminder, this is a free conference for and about platform engineering, born to celebrate our awesome community of 15k+ platform engineers đ„
Join our kick-off event by tuning into YouTube live on Thursday, June 8th at 10:00 am CDT. Then head to the Platform Engineering Slack channel to chat with other attendees and guest speakers in our live Q&As.
Wanna know the best part? All talks are pre-recorded, so youâll be able to watch at your own pace.
PlatformCon 2023 talks delivered by platform engineering professionals will cover five tracks:
- TECH. Dive deep into the technical backbone of developer platforms. This track explores how platform teams solve specific problems with specific toolsâfrom Kubernetes to IaC, service catalogs to GitOps.
- IMPACT. Discover the impact and business value platform engineering initiatives deliver. Hear C-level perspectives on how their platform impacts key metrics and learn how practitioners secure executive buy-in.
- BLUEPRINTS. Explore tried and true platform blueprints and reference architectures. These talks uncover key design considerations and explore how to effectively combine tools for your developer platform.
- CULTURE. Developer platforms donât live in a vacuum. Theyâre built by engineers for other engineers. This track discusses the cultural aspects of platform engineering, from product management to how it relates to DevOps and SRE.
- STORIES. Learn from practitioners who built platforms for real-life enterprise use cases. These talks showcase the platform journeyâfrom initial steps to building and rolling out across the engineering organization.
AUDIENCE - who should join?
Platform Engineers, DevOps Engineers, Site Reliability Engineers, System Engineers, Infrastructure Kubernetes Administrators, Technical Architects, Application Developers with a DevOps affinity, and Technical Management.
