Upon graduation he worked as a software development consultant helping Brazilian and American companies build software and adopt agile practices. Thereafter, Solon took the leap to move to the United States to work for Amazon as a software development engineer, where he spent many years learning and experiencing software at a massive scale.<\/p>\n<p>In the search for opportunities in smaller companies, Solon landed as a senior engineer at Spotify and as a staff engineer at Segment (later acquired by Twilio) until he crashed and burned with a tiny start up founded by previous coworkers. Nowadays, Solon works as a staff engineer in the API platform team, helping engineering teams at Checkr gain more control over their systems.<\/p>\n<p>He lives in Seattle, Washington, USA with his wife, baby and dog. Occasionally he plays tennis.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][dipi_dual_heading first_heading=&#8221;@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9jYXRlZ29yaWVzIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsiYmVmb3JlIjoiIiwiYWZ0ZXIiOiIiLCJsaW5rX3RvX3Rlcm1fcGFnZSI6Im9mZiIsInNlcGFyYXRvciI6IiB8ICIsImNhdGVnb3J5X3R5cGUiOiJjYXRlZ29yeSJ9fQ==@&#8221; second_heading=&#8221;A protocol for continuous deployment in legacy software&#8221; heading_tag=&#8221;h4&#8243; heading_display=&#8221;column&#8221; fh_style=&#8221;background&#8221; first_heading_color=&#8221;#F7955B&#8221; fh_padding=&#8221;0.25em|0.5em|0.15em|0.5em|false|true&#8221; fh_margin=&#8221;1px|0px|1px|0px|true|true&#8221; sh_margin=&#8221;0px|0px|0px||false|false&#8221; heading_display_tablet=&#8221;column&#8221; heading_display_phone=&#8221;column&#8221; heading_display_last_edited=&#8221;off|desktop&#8221; disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.2&#8243; _dynamic_attributes=&#8221;first_heading&#8221; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; first_heading_font=&#8221;|||on|||||&#8221; first_heading_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; first_heading_font_size=&#8221;0.65em&#8221; first_heading_line_height=&#8221;1em&#8221; second_heading_font_size=&#8221;1em&#8221; second_heading_line_height=&#8221;1.25em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;left&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][\/dipi_dual_heading][et_pb_text disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; link_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||0px||true|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||true|false&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h4>A protocol for continuous deployment in legacy software<\/h4>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text disabled_on=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; link_font=&#8221;|700|||||||&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||1em||false|false&#8221; border_width_bottom=&#8221;1px&#8221; border_color_bottom=&#8221;#22485C&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]In this talk, you&#8217;ll learn the principles and ideas that the developer experience team at Checkr applied on their path from newbies to continuous deployment in inherited legacy software systems.
