Bob Walker
Technical Director
Octopus Deploy
Bob Walker started off as a .NET Developer back in the early days of .NET 1.1 with the goal of converting ASP pages to ASP.NET web applications. His career progressed from .NET developer to lead developer to architect; today, he is leader of the customer solutions team at Octopus Deploy. As a team, Octopus Deploy answers both technical and non-technical questions. Bob is a fan of simplifying software deployment and has been since the early 2010s when he worked for a company where the only time to deploy to production was 2:00 a.m. Saturday mornings. That experience led him down the path of CI/CD, DevOps, TDD and automating all the things. He was exposed to Redgate tooling and Octopus Deploy while working at Farm Credit Services of America and has been a fan ever since. In his current role, Bob gets to help customers work with a variety of technologies every day.
