Joining me for this first episode is Andrew Fong, the co-founder and CEO of Prodvana, and previously, VP Engineering Infrastructure at Dropbox. Andrew was in Infrastructure Engineering during the creation of Dropbox Grouper, and before then, was an SRE at YouTube and AOL.

During this episode, we’ll be talking about Dropbox Grouper, the story and motivations behind building it, as well as funny and interesting stories from Andrew’s time at YouTube.

We dig into the cultural shift in platform and security, where developer experience is being prioritized, and the tension that creates in the organization, as well as AI and how it’s going to be affecting Platform Engineering.
