Paul Hammant runs his own DevOps consultancy, bringing software engineering teams back from the brink of tech debt bankruptcy.

He spent over 12 years with the global software consultancy Thoughtworks and has worked with clients like Google, Bank of America, and many more global enterprises.

While at ThoughtWorks he contributed to the inception of Selenium, the most popular web-browser driver in the world.

Lately, Paul has been advocating for software best practices globally, including trunk-based development and branch by abstration.

In this episode we got to ask him:

  • what these two concepts refer to
  • whether Git is the future of version control
  • how to deal with flaky builds
