John Knowles has led a significant transformation in the Developer Experience at Capital One UK for the past two years. He championed initiatives that empowered engineers with greater autonomy; fostering an environment where innovation thrives. His approach cultivated a value-driven and customer-centric mindset, enhancing efficiency and enabling teams to focus on high-impact projects. This cultural change streamlined processes, igniting a passion for continuous improvement and collaborative problem-solving throughout the organisation.
In globally distributed engineering organizations, Developer Experience can become fragmented by geography, time zones, and cultural norms. Without deliberate coordination, developers face asynchronous blockers, uneven access to tools, and isolation from decision-making. How can teams develop inclusive, high-functioning remote and hybrid cultures that sustain productivity and engagement.
True developer experience transformation isn’t just about tools or processes—it’s a cultural movement. Leaders must shift mindsets, inspire engineers, and communicate value in a way that resonates. This session explores how to build momentum that drives real, lasting change.
