He wants to introduce you to SOLID as he believes it helped him become less of a hack.

Talk: Breaking Builds & Breaking Bones

Whether your endeavor is to become a software engineer or a professional kickboxer, you’ll be faced with a number of obstacles and challenges. Having never opened a terminal or thrown a punch before, I’ll share how I overcame some of the biggest hurdles of my life in the pursuit of changing career paths into software development and of becoming a Nak Muay Ying (female Muay Thai boxer).

Bio: I am a full-stack software developer at Fresho! in Melbourne. Two and a half years ago, I was running a restaurant, teaching myself to write code and learning how to throw the perfect punch. Life is a balance of being active, being competitive and writing beautiful code

Talk: Why you need an S-Curve career path

As you progress through your professional career, you will face challenging questions, such as "should I leave my current company or stay here for a few more years?" or "should I change my area of focus from development to this new thing called devops?" In my short talk, I try to give you a frame of mind so that you can find good answers to these questions in order to achieve your best potential without a lot of trial and error.

Bio: Amir is an experienced software engineer and team builder who is currently CTO of Ellenex, a startup in IoT. He is passionate about design, development and operations of highly scalable software systems based on microservices in the cloud. He is also a part-time husband and father who enjoys spending time with his family when work allows.
