AI at Scale: Developer Productivity & Engineering Excellence w/ Adeeb Valiulla | ShipTalk S4E4

How do you measure engineering excellence in the age of AI? In this ShipTalk episode, Dewan Ahmed talks with Adeeb Valiulla, leader of Developer Productivity & Efficiency at Harness, about redefining productivity beyond dashboards and vanity metrics.

Supercharge Developer Productivity with the New Harness Code Experience

Smarter PR Reviews: Inline comments, keyboard shortcuts, and faster diffs reduce context switching. Optimized for Scale: Instant file tree and change listing performance even in large monorepos. Seamless Navigation: Effortlessly move between branches, commits, and repos without losing context. Unified Design System: A consistent, intuitive UI across the entire Harness platform. At Harness, we know developer velocity depends on everyday workflow.

Industry Reports Agree: DevOps is the Key to Unlocking AI's Potential

Recent industry research shows that AI is accelerating code creation, but having mixed results downstream. They also show that better platforms and pipelines yield better outcomes for teams adopting AI for coding. Every engineering leader I talk to is asking the same questions about AI coding assistants: How much faster can we ship? How much more productive can my developers be? On the surface, the answers look pretty good.

A 5-step enterprise guide to IaCM

As enterprises scale, Infrastructure as Code (IaC) alone isn’t enough to manage the growing complexity of modern infrastructure. Infrastructure as Code Management (IaCM) elevates IaC into a strategic, governed, and automated framework, providing centralized control, compliance, and collaboration at scale. Platforms like Harness IaCM make this transformation practical, turning infrastructure chaos into consistent, secure, and efficient operations.

The Silent Leak: How One Line of Go Drained Memory Across Thousands of Goroutines

This technical deep-dive reveals how Harness engineers discovered and fixed a critical Go memory leak where reassigning context variables in worker loops created invisible chains that prevented garbage collection across thousands of goroutines, ultimately consuming gigabytes of memory in their CI/CD delegate service.

Bridging the Gap Between Finance & Engineering: The Harness Playbook

Most cloud waste isn’t technical, it’s organizational. Harness brings finance and engineering together with FinOps practices that connect spend to outcomes, not blame. The result: 30%+ savings and alignment that scales. In too many cloud organizations, finance and engineering operate like two planets in orbit. Finance speaks in forecasts, budgets, billing codes. Engineering speaks in uptime, latency, error rates. The result?
