Toli is a Software Engineering Practitioner who believes that learning and working together are catalysts for high-performing software-first teams who care about how their software serves their customers.

Toli's career began in the field of maths and physics, which led him into the world of software engineering, where he spent his formative first few years learning the craft while writing algorithms for solving large-scale "travelling-sales-person" problems across the globe. He has since worked with Brent from The Phoenix Project for a B2B energy company, the initial core team at cinch to build the fastest-growing unicorn in UK startup history, while he is currently helping Flipdish build the next generation of restaurant tech.

Throughout this journey, Toli fell in love with DevOps, Observability and Team Topologies, while he discovered a new passion for serverless, event-driven socio-technical architectural paradigms and product thinking.

I’m Tatiana Mikhaleva, a Docker Captain, GitKraken Ambassador, Notion Ambassador, DevOps engineer, and the girl behind DevOps.Pink — a corner of the internet where cloud automation gets clarity, community, and just a hint of pink rebellion.

💾 I’ve been shaping the cloud for years, working with AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, Terraform, and (of course) Docker. What really excites me is taking messy, fragile systems and turning them into something clean, automated, and reliable — the kind of systems that give engineers back their time (and sanity!).

💛 I run DevOps.Pink, where I’ve built a community of engineers who want real-world DevOps without the gatekeeping. I write in-depth, step-by-step guides that make complex tech feel approachable — not just for seasoned pros, but for anyone who wants to break into DevOps. And yes, I put a special spotlight on women in tech because this space needs more support, more voices, and fewer barriers.

🚀 My dream is to make DevOps exciting instead of exhausting, and to show that cloud and containers don’t have to be a mystery. They can be a superpower.

🐳 As a Docker Captain, I love sharing everything I’ve learned — from Kubernetes clusters to CI/CD pipelines — so others can build better, faster, and with more confidence.

💖 Tech is more than tools. I like to make it human: automate the boring stuff, bring structure to chaos, and make the process creative and fun. And if that means breaking some old rules, perfect.

If you’re building something big, something new, or something that scares you just a little… I’m already on board. Let’s make DevOps a place where everyone can thrive!

Anjani Pandey is the founder and managing partner of MetMov LLP, a Bengaluru consulting firm that helps founder-led companies grow without the founder holding everything together. He writes a weekly field manual on how growing companies break and what to put in place instead.

He has spent more than 15 years inside operating teams. He ran global supply chain and operations at Y-Not Design & Mfg., ran programmes in central operations and process excellence at Udaan, and managed projects at BHEL. His work spans e-commerce, manufacturing and infrastructure. He holds an MBA in operations and strategy from ISB, and is a certified PMP and Six Sigma Black Belt.

Over the past year he built and now runs his own firm on nine AI systems, more than 100 AI agents doing daily work. He started with no code. He keeps a public "lab notebook" of what went wrong: agents that sounded sure while guessing, agents that graded their own work, and scheduled agents that never actually ran. Each failure became a rule he now teaches.

Today he runs hands-on AI workshops for company teams. People leave having built their first AI helper, with a simple job card to brief any agent and a checklist for switching agents on safely. His fireside talk at GO DESi, "My experiments with truth and AI agents", is the base of his workshop. His style is practical, honest about failure, and built for managers who need results, not theory.
