There was a time when I considered two pull requests a good day. Not because I wasn't working hard — but because slow reviews, large diffs, and friction-filled tooling were silently capping my output.
Then I changed the system. Not the hours. The system.
In this session, I'll walk you through exactly what shifted — from how I structure my work and write PR descriptions, to the environment setup and CI/CD practices that quietly drain velocity for most engineers. We'll spend time on practical tools like notification-driven code review workflows, Claude-powered automation for reviewing and building, and how Git worktrees can let you move across multiple workstreams simultaneously without losing context.
You'll leave with a clear picture of what's slowing you down and a concrete first step to fix it — whether you're junior, mid-level, or senior.
