Developer Experience
Developer Experience is a newly formed group, born from the strategic merger of the Engineering Productivity team and the Test Platform sub-department. This exciting combination allows us to take a holistic approach to delivering cutting-edge Platform capabilities.
Mission
Our mission is to empower developers to focus on innovation, build, and deliver high-quality products to our customers. We aim to achieve this through:
- State-of-the-art developer tooling
- Robust and reliable test infrastructure
- Data-driven analysis for informed decision-making
- Streamlined release governance
- Comprehensive performance validation
