Pulling Back the Curtain on Platform Engineering: How Technology Skills Will Come to Life in Your Career
Abstract: You’ve put years into programming. Devoted hours to developing. Got adventurous with AI.

Jared Peterson, senior vice president of Platform Engineering at SAS, gives you a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the SAS approach to data and AI – and connects what you’re covering in class with what the developers, engineers, systems architects and other tech professionals in his division do on a daily basis.
