Burendo will host Yorkshire DevOps at their January 2026 event in the Leeds office.

You can find our code of conduct over at yorkshiredevops.dev

Speakers:
Speaker: Nick Lefley, Senior Consultant - Burendo
Talk: My frenemy, Claude
Description: Can Claude Code replace the need for senior engineers? Can it deliver production ready, good quality code faster than conventional teams? What happens if you stop thinking altogether, and let Claude lead the project? And are we correct in our scepticism of what AI can really solve?

Speaker: Ivan Adelinov, DevOps Lead at Infraxis AG
Talk: Orchestrating Immutable Artifacts via Helm
Description: In an ecosystem governed by PCI-SSF and ISO 20022 standards, release management internally we package and manage release artefacts in helm chart formats as the authoritative source of truth for a payment processing system.
