176 The beginning of Redpill Linpros DevOps academy – how do we get more women in DevOps? With Kriti Baniya, Thea Hermansen Bakke and Ingunn Rivå.
The first DevOps Academy at Redpill Linpro has finally kicked off, and in this episode, we meet three of this year's participants: Ingunn, Kriti, and Thea. The DevOps Academy was created by Kirsti Stien, the regional manager for Redpill Linpro DevOps Oslo, with the aspiration to get more people to choose a career within DevOps, especially young women.

To hear more about Kriti, Thea, and Ingunn's thoughts on this topic, and how their everyday life looks like as a Junior System Consultants at Redpill Linpro, tune in to episode 176 of IT Talks.
