Randy Pagels

Principal Trainer

Xebia

As Principal Trainer at Xebia USA, my focus is on expanding our GitHub and AI training offerings and strengthening the capabilities of our team to deliver them. I design and deliver practical, hands-on programs covering GitHub Copilot, Actions, Advanced Security, Prompt Engineering, and more. Courses are built around real-world scenarios and flexible formats—from in-person workshops to on-demand content—to meet learners where they are. I’m committed to maintaining high-quality standards, supporting trainer growth, and helping teams confidently adopt modern DevOps and AI-driven development practices. Previously, I spent over 17 years at Microsoft, working closely with the Azure Engineering team in Redmond and helping scale FastTrack for Azure globally. I regularly present at conferences and events on all things GitHub, DevOps, IoT, and Automated UI testing. My passion for clear, engaging, and actionable training has been a constant throughout my career.
