Bob Walker

Field CTO

Bob Walker is a Field CTO Octopus Deploy. Bob started as a developer in the early days of .NET when web forms were the hottest new thing, and manual deployments were the norm. After one too many five-hour 2 AM Saturday deployments, he searched for any automation to stop that pain. His original focus was on automating database deployments. Since then, his passion has expanded from writing code to creating full CI/CD pipelines and implementing DevOps practices.
