OUR COMMUNITIES

The Roundabouts were formed in 2016 and started with The Agile Roundabout, off the back of real life conversations relating to common issues in delivering software and applications. Its founders were hearing about similar challenges across industries, and so believed there to be an opportunity to get people together and share these ideas and help each other to solve them. Since then, we have introduced other communities with a view to share knowledge within more specific areas of software engineering and technology delivery.

It’s our mission to be the #1 facilitator of free knowledge sharing in the London tech scene.

It's been a while but we are so happy to be returning this month for our first event of 2021 - sponsored by our friends at Cazoo! First up, we'll be hearing from Adrien Baron, Senior Software Engineer @ Cazoo. Adrien will be talking about Micro Frontends. "Have you ever needed to provide a component to another team while retaining control over its deployment? What if you also want to keep CI pipelines independent, be type safe and share some runtime dependencies? In this talk, we will explore an approach to Micro frontends that lets you do just that, using React!" Our second speaker is Ben Mcgeachie, Senior Software Engineer @ Tesco. Ben will be giving a talk titled "Breaking The Monolith" talking about Tesco's journey to try and move from a monolith application to a micro-frontend solution.

Agile Roundabout #55 - Can you be an Agile purist in the modern day workplace?

Hello Community! Join us on 29th April for the 55th Agile Roundabout! This month's topic will be "Is it possible to be an Agile purist in the modern day work place?" First up, we'll hear from Graham Smith, Agile Coach & Trainer @ Fresh Agile. Graham will cover his journey from a purist to having an Agile mindset, he covers the steps he took to change, the importance of asking ‘why’, relating back to the agile principles, and being pragmatic in your agile adoption. Next up, we'll be hearing from Carlo Beschi, Lead Agile Coach @ Treatwell. Carlo will share with us how his views about agile, and the need to be radical, or instead "pragmatic" about its adoption have evolved over the last 10 years, as he supported delivery team and agile transformations at YNAP, 4finance and ASOS. Agenda: 5.00pm - Graham Smith (Fresh Agile) 5:30pm - Carlo Beschi (Treatwell) 6.00pm - Finish Thanks all, The Roundabouts Team 🤳 📱 Tweet us @_roundabouts_

Our other community

FIND A TECH JOB

Find a Tech Job events are the equivalent of speed dating for recruitment. We run events that enable employers to meet with potential candidates in a relaxed, informal setting.

For the potential candidate, our events are a chance to: find out about interesting projects; meet with members of a company’s technical team; and learn more about a company’s practices and technical processes before applying for a role.

For employers, our events provide a platform to go beyond the job spec and present their companies to prospective candidates.

It's worth noting: we're a community, not a recruitment agency. We don't place people in roles, we don't stand between companies and candidates. We're just a friendly platform helping to bridge the gap between amazing projects and brilliant developers.
