The End of “Good Code”? AI, Throughput, and Reliability with CircleCI CTO Rob Zuber

Saison 1 · Épisode 19

mercredi 10 septembre 2025 • Durée 37:38

Is “good code” still the right measure of engineering success in an AI-driven world? In this episode of Humans of Reliability, Rob Zuber, CircleCI CTO, joins Sylvain to explore how coding assistants are reshaping developer workflows and changing what teams value.

Rob shares what he’s seeing across CircleCI’s customer base: a clear boost in throughput, new bottlenecks shifting from code creation to code review, and the rise of “vibe coding,” where engineers trust AI-generated code they may not fully understand.

He challenges long-held assumptions about readability and maintainability, arguing that software engineering is on the edge of a paradigm shift. For SREs and developers alike, this conversation is a candid look at how to stay relevant, embrace simplicity, and rethink reliability in the age of AI.

Frontline Reliability: Protecting User Journeys with SLOs with Shery Brauner (Razor, ex-Zalando)

Saison 1 · Épisode 18

mercredi 20 août 2025 • Durée 31:03

What does it really take to move from firefighting incidents to building reliability at scale? In this episode of Humans of Reliability, Shery Brauner (Razor, ex-Zalando) shares her unique journey from frontend and backend engineering to leading site reliability practices. She explains why protecting the user journey is the key to effective incident management, how SLOs cut through noisy alerts, and why observability must come first.

Shery also talks about practical steps teams can take to adopt an SLO-driven strategy, the pitfalls of over-instrumentation, and how AI is shaping the future of incident response. Whether you’re an engineer, manager, or reliability leader, you’ll walk away with concrete ideas on how to protect what matters most: your customers’ experience.

Are AI and Platforms Making SRE Obsolete? With Kaspar von Grünberg, Humanitec’s CEO

lundi 24 mars 2025 • Durée 25:44

Last year, over 89% of companies claimed to have adopted platform engineering. And, in the past month, LLMs have been disrupting how we think about software development. In this context, Kaspar, asks if the role of Site Reliability Engineers is being obsolete as we know it. Kaspar argues that while SREs aren’t going anywhere, their responsibilities are evolving—fast.

We talk about:

The need for the SRE role to be transformed
How to build reliability as part every golden path
The role of AI and LLMs in Developer Experience
The limits of LLMs for reliability and infrastructure

Scientific Incident Management with Dan Slimmon

Saison 1 · Épisode 7

vendredi 14 mars 2025 • Durée 37:35

Dan Slimmon is an incident management veteran who's worked at Etsy, HashiCorp, and now leads consulting and training on pragmatic, non-bureaucratic incident response.

In this episode, Dan shares his philosophy on "scientific incident response," the importance of hypothesis-driven troubleshooting, and why incidents should be seen as normal in complex systems.

We also explore:

Why asking the right questions is more important than knowing all the answers.
How to use nerd sniping to unlock insights from engineers.
Common failure patterns he sees across organizations.

How AI broke serverless and what to do about it with Vercel’s Mariano Fernández Cocirio

jeudi 6 mars 2025 • Durée 13:52

Mariano, Staff Product Manager at Vercel, explains why serverless architectures are hitting unexpected limits—they’re too fast.

The industry has spent millions optimizing serverless for speed, but AI workloads are changing the game. In the AI realm, slower execution often leads to better results. The challenge? Paying for all that idle compute time while waiting for AI responses.

Mariano explains how Vercel Fluid is introducing a new execution model that blends the best of serverless and traditional servers—scaling efficiently while reducing costs. Mariano breaks down Fluid’s architecture, its built-in reliability features, and how it redefines cloud computing for LLM-powered applications.

Tune in to learn how Fluid could reshape the industry and what it means for developers.

AI in Production with GitHub’s Sean Goedecke

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

mardi 18 février 2025 • Durée 17:33

In this episode, we sit down with Sean Goedecke, Staff Software Engineer at GitHub, to discuss where LLMs fit into real-world development.

Sean shares how he’s using LLMs how he’s drawing the line for AI-assistance in the codebases he manages—though, as he says, this might all change by next summer.

Sean also weighs in on how LLMs could assist SREs during outages—especially when you’re only half-awake at 3 a.m. after a rather inconvinient page.

Tune in for a nuanced take on the future of AI in software engineering, “vibe coding,” and the evolution of rubber ducks.
