Julia Simon
CloudOps People Partner, Learning & Community
Montreal, Canada
For the past 6+ years, I have been working at a Montreal-based cloud services company, CloudOps. I strive to understand what motivates people, creates effective and collaborative teams, and how the role of community participation and ongoing learning affects people. I am the co-founder of the Eastern Canadian CNCF meetups (which run online, and in non-Covid times, in five cities), as well as an organizer of DevOps Montreal and DevOpsDays Montreal. I recently gave this talk for the first time at Women Techmakers Montreal and Quebec and at cdCon. I am happiest when I can spend time with my son, collaborate with others, and be on my bike.
