Your developers aren't users of the platform. They're customers. @danielbryantuk.com explains why platform engineering needs a product mindset—and why APIs, automation, abstractions, and composability matter more than simply adding more tools. Watch: youtu.be/ROBX-P7q1d8?...

With hiring for DevRel roles increasing and junior folks often having limited in-person presentation experience (thanks to the Covid-era), I highly recommend reading Randy's advice!

"Great internal platforms don’t emerge from ad-hoc automation or isolated tooling choices; they're built with intentionality around the core attributes that matter: speed, safety, efficiency, and scalability." My latest @syntasso.io blog! www.syntasso.io/post/the-int...
