The developer workflow is changing faster than most organizations can keep up with. AI isn't just writing code anymore, it's configuring pipelines, reviewing merge requests and automating compliance checks that used to require human intervention at every step.
For Government agencies, that shift raises a different set of questions:
- What happens to oversight when agents are doing the work?
- How do you optimally interact with on-premise AI systems?
- What does all of this mean for the humans still in the loop?
On June 18th, Liz Burrows will talk with Joel Krooswyk, former Federal CTO at GitLab and longtime public sector technology practitioner, about where developer workflows are headed, what he's hearing in the field and what it actually takes to make AI work when you can't rely on cloud connectivity or SaaS AI systems.
In this episode, we'll cover:
- How developer workflows are changing
- Compliance, humans in the loop and agents for critical stages of the SDLC
- Why agencies are hosting their own models and what that enables
- Artifact management in disconnected environments
- Flexibility for SLED buyers with GovRAMP & GitLab Dedicated for Government
- Where DevSecOps is headed and what's still missing
If you work in or sell to the government and you're trying to understand what AI-driven DevSecOps actually looks like in practice, not in theory, this episode is for you.

Agentic AI should work where your software lives — not the other way around.
While other vendors push organizations toward the cloud, GitLab Duo Agent Platform is built to operate across self-hosted, air-gapped and hybrid environments. That means security-sensitive and public sector teams can automate across the software delivery lifecycle without compromising on control, compliance or deployment model.
Join Rebecca Carter, Liz Burrows and Jordan Janes for a technical and strategic look at DAP's expanding capabilities — including two upcoming releases designed for teams that can't afford to sacrifice governance for speed.
You'll walk away with:
- A clear picture of how DAP supports agentic AI in self-hosted and air-gapped deployments
- An introduction to GitLab AI Governance — centralized control and auditability for agent actions at the point AI decisions are made
- An early look at GitLab Orbit, a knowledge graph layer that increases agent accuracy and reduces model requests through semantic context across your software lifecycle
