Bobby DeVeaux is a Consultant DevOps Engineer who currently works with UKCloud's clients to help them understand DevOps, how to improve their automation and migrate to a cloud-native environment. Bobby has over 20 years experience working with the web and has most recently been working with public sector clients on their latest projects.

Before/After the Meetup:

A few members will likely be in The Font (http://thefontleicester.co.uk/) beforehand for a drink and a bite to eat, and afterwards there'll be a group heading to Soar Point (or somewhere else nearby) for a social catch up.

Parking:

Deacon Street car park is where people usually park, the postcode is LE2 7DP. (There's also spots on the street directly outside the gateway building but they're usually all taken up!) Deacon Street is available from 6pm onwards as we have permission from the University to use the car park.
