Rundeck: The Swiss Army Knife of Automation

How small teams can scale operations without scaling chaos
A few weeks ago, I gave a webinar with the PagerDuty team to talk about something I’ve come to rely on heavily in my consulting work: automation.
More specifically — how small teams can punch above their weight with the right automation strategy, and why Rundeck continues to be a secret weapon in my toolkit.
We covered:
- ✅ Where Rundeck shines compared to traditional Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs)
- 🛠️ How to create just enough self-service for your team (without over-engineering)
- 💡 Real-world examples from consulting work with early-stage startups
Whether you’re a DevOps engineer, tech lead, or founder, this talk is full of insights on scaling engineering operations with less chaos and more clarity.
