OPEN Session: Using AI to Solve Real Problems for Development Teams
Wednesday February 12, 2025 10:00am - 10:25am PST
AI DevWorld Stage
Dennis Pilarinos, Unblocked, Founder & CEO

For all the claims about AI increasing developer productivity, why aren't developers seeing more of an impact?

What we’ve heard from thousands of developers is that writing code is not their main challenge. They’re stuck at Step #1 – trying to find the right context about how the codebase works and why.

Codebases are a compilation of thousands of decisions, discussions, and documents that live across tools like Confluence, Slack, Notion, Jira, Linear, GitHub, and more - accumulated over years if not decades. Whether a developer is onboarding to your team or trying to understand how a piece of legacy code works, they waste hours every day digging for the answers through all these systems.

Unblocked augments your code with context from the tools in your stack, giving your development team a platform for asking questions, and for discovering historical context about their code.

The impact here is profound: with Unblocked, developers can answer their own questions without interrupting their peers or having to wait for meetings. What’s more, they can find the entirety of the information they need wherever they're working.

If we want to see actual productivity benefits from AI, we need to use it where we spend the most time. The more we can empower developers with the context they need, the faster we can achieve our goals and the happier we can make our teams.

OPEN Session: Scaling Secure, Codeless Mobile App Development and Continuous Monitoring in CI/CD for DevOps Teams
Wednesday February 12, 2025 10:00am - 10:25am PST
DeveloperWeek MAIN STAGE
Karen Hsu, Appdome, SVP Mobile DevOps & Security Solutions

In the fast-paced world of DevOps, delivering secure, functional mobile apps quickly and efficiently is critical. This session is tailored for DevOps engineers and leaders looking to streamline mobile app development by incorporating code-less, secure app building, automated testing, and continuous monitoring into their CI/CD pipelines. Attendees will learn how to:
Integrate Secure Mobile App Builds Without Code or SDKs:

1. Automatically build critical security features such as encryption, fraud/malware/social engineering prevention, and threat detection directly into the mobile app, without writing any additional code or relying on third-party SDKs.
Automate Testing in CI/CD: Seamlessly integrate no-code security testing and scriptless functional testing into your CI/CD workflows. This ensures that each code push automatically triggers comprehensive testing, identifying any issues with secured apps before deployment—without requiring manual intervention.

2. Implement Continuous Threat Detection: Incorporate real-time threat detection for all your mobile apps. Then automate builds with protections against live attacks in your CI/CD pipeline. By closing the loop between security monitoring and app development, teams can ensure their apps are secure post-deployment and protected against evolving threats.

3. Optimize CI/CD Workflows for Faster Delivery: Implement a fully automated, end-to-end process that ensures every app build is secure, functional, and continuously monitored for potential threats. DevOps teams will learn how to accelerate their app delivery timelines without sacrificing security or performance, leveraging CI/CD tools like Jenkins, GitLab CI, and CircleCI, Bitrise and Azure DevOps.

This session will include a live demonstration showing how DevOps teams can integrate these capabilities into their existing CI/CD workflows, enabling faster, secure, and scalable mobile app delivery.

Thursday February 13, 2025 10:00am - 10:25am PST
Dev Security World Stage
Aruneesh Salhotra, Seasoned Technologist
OWASP Certified 

In today’s interconnected world, organizational silos pose a significant challenge to effective application security (AppSec). These silos—rooted in specialization, control structures, and cultural divides—impede communication and collaboration, weakening overall security efforts.
This presentation will explore the causes and impacts of organizational silos on security programs and demonstrate how breaking these barriers can strengthen coordination and foster a unified security culture. Attendees will gain insights into why silos form, their detrimental effects on security initiatives, and actionable strategies to overcome them.
Few Key Takeaways:
Understanding Silos: How specialization and cultural divides create barriers.
Impact on Security: The risks silos introduce to AppSec programs.
Practical Strategies: Approaches such as cross-functional training, creating shared security visions, and initiating collaborative initiatives to dismantle silos.
Building a Unified Culture: Empowering every team member, not just the security team, to contribute to application security.

Thursday February 20, 2025 1:30pm - 1:55pm PST
VIRTUAL OpsWorld
Maher Hanafi, Betterworks, VP of Engineering

Contrary to the conventional narrative, the path to engineering leadership is far from linear. Successful leaders often emerge from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. In this session, I'll share my personal journey, which began with building leadership skills through online gaming and unexpectedly stumbled into entrepreneurship.

Discover how these unconventional experiences equipped me with the skills and perspectives needed to excel in leadership roles. We'll explore how diverse experiences, from hobbies and passions to unexpected challenges, can provide valuable insights and transferable skills that are essential for effective leadership.

Learn how to recognize and leverage your unique strengths, regardless of your traditional career path. We'll discuss how overcoming challenges, whether personal or professional, can build resilience, adaptability, and problem-solving skills. By understanding the unconventional paths of successful engineering leaders, you'll be inspired to embrace your own unique journey and discover your potential for leadership.
