Work

Mike Devine is a technology leader with over 25 years of experience in a wide variety of industries.

His primary area of expertise is agile software development, which calls for a common-sense, iterative approach that helps engineers build useful online systems. Mike recently began a new leadership role at KFC, where he is leading the agile process for their website and mobile app teams.

Mike previously worked at Comcast, where he managed a team of talented scrum masters and developed agile training workshops. He also served as a scrum master for several engineering teams, including Xfinity Mobile and the internal Comcast division that launched xfinity.com, the consumer portal with over 40 million monthly users at the time.

Mike believes in communicating without resorting to corporate buzzwords, starting meetings on time and ending them early, and keeping a healthy sense of humor (Office Space quotes are a personal favorite).
