DOWN with shift left: Why you should be shifting DOWN into the platform

This session challenges the overuse of “shift left” by exploring how platform teams can absorb operational complexity and decision-making, freeing developers to focus on building great software.
The industry has embraced the idea of “shift left,” often pushing more responsibilities onto developers under the banner of empowerment. In reality, this has frequently resulted in overloaded teams managing tasks that should belong elsewhere. In this talk, Scott Rosenberg argues for a new direction: shifting complexity down into the platform. Rosenberg explores how intelligent, opinionated platforms can take ownership of tasks such as security scanning, policy enforcement, manifest generation, image building, and vulnerability prioritization. By integrating tools and frameworks like VEX and leveraging platform-native automation, teams can ensure that critical engineering concerns are handled consistently, without burdening developers. Attendees will learn how to reframe platform responsibilities and enable scalable, sustainable software delivery through smarter platform design.
