Interview with an IT Agility Director
Question: What was your role and responsibilities for the last several years?

A

As an IT director, my my main roles, the last about four years, were leading up the DevOps initiative, Duke Energy. We we kicked that off a colleague of mine and myself. We still call ourselves the Godfather's of DevOps at Duke Energy. We began a grassroots campaign where we before we had any funding. We just started understanding where the market was going understanding the weaknesses that we had so we began figuring out how we could get started with the DevOps initiative at Duke over the course of time.

A

We ended up spending uh spinning up a dedicated initiative where we rolled that into a larger effort at Duke, Energy and I led that team, along with a couple other teams that I had through through the last probably started in 2016 and I, went through the end of 2019 and through that we were charged with really kind of two objectives, and that was to stand up a DevOps tool chain for the enterprise and then figure out how we teach people to use it and on board the teams um throughout the enterprise.
