Hello everyone - I’m John, working in a DevOps group taking more focus on the build systems of the company. I work at Orca Security - a cybersecurity startup located in Tel-Aviv Israel. All of Orca code is python based, the code base has grown and now we need to provide solutions to improve the development velocity and by that I mean a better control on the dependency tree, when something changes then only the relevant tests that are affected by it need to run. I had experience with Bazel for C++ sometime before attempting to migrate a previous company from Makefiles. I’m aware of the common build tools out there, not sure I have much experience with them, but I do know of Bazel, Please, Buck and Pants. I came to know Pants by searching the internet and looking for build systems specifically for Python and it seems that Pants holds much promise for our needs

Hi! I used to work for a cybersecurity startup in Tel Aviv! But that was a long time ago...
I'm usually in CA, but happen to be on European timezones for the next week or so, so if you have any questions we may be able to answer them with quicker than usual turnaround time... :)
