AWS Security User Group Singapore: April 2026!
Hey AWS Security fam 👋
**Our goal remains the same: bring security and cloud practitioners together.**
Security is wide; cloud teams move fast. Let us meet in the middle — share what is working, what is painful, and how we can ship safer, faster.
Want to speak next time?
We are lining up lightning talks and deep dives for upcoming meetups — 30-minute sessions, interactive by design. New voices welcome: operators, builders, blue/red/purple teamers, platform folks.
If you have shipped it, broken it, or fixed it, we want to hear it. (Ping the organizers / DM us after you RSVP.)
🎤 **Speakers**
✅ **Building Visibility into Identity: Reporting with AWS IAM Identity Center**
📌 Alfred Koh - Senior Manager, Fintech
This session explores how AWS services can be combined to build a practical reporting dashboard for AWS IAM Identity Center, using QuickSight to surface access patterns, governance signals, and operational visibility for security and identity teams.
✅ **Hardening Sensitive CI/CD Workloads with AWS Lambda**
📌 Bobby Lin - Manager, Application Security and DevSecOps, Fintech
In this session, Bobby will share an architectural approach to decouple high risk workflows from CI/CD pipelines using AWS Lambda, reducing blast radius and improving security posture. The discussion will use GitLab based pipelines and focus on secure design patterns.
✅ **Automating Secure Access Across Your AWS Ecosystem**
📌 Deddy Gunawi - APJ Solution Architect, Okta
In this session, Deddy will explore practical approaches to automating secure access across AWS environments through centralized identity and lifecycle management. The discussion will cover mapping user identities to cloud resources, automating provisioning and deprovisioning workflows, and applying attribute based access models to reduce manual credential management and over privileged accounts.

How Founders Use AI : Singapore Edition
How Founders & Operators Use AI brings the eChai conversation to Singapore. Builders who are actively working with AI tools across coding, product, marketing, sales and internal operations, all in one place.
There is no stage, no slides, no panel. Just people who are building things and using AI to do it better. Founders share the stack they rely on, what they have dropped and what has genuinely improved speed or output. Operators walk through the workflows they use day to day, how they structure prompts, where automation fits in and what still requires human judgment.
The conversation happens naturally. Over coffee, over drinks, in small groups that form and reform through the evening. Someone mentions a tool they switched to last week. Someone else explains how they restructured their entire content workflow around AI. That is the format.
Singapore brings together founders, operators and investors from across Asia and the world, and this session creates a focused space to meet the people who are shaping how startups work with AI.
You will meet early stage founders building their first AI-powered pro
duct, teams using AI to scale across global markets and operators who have integrated AI deeply into how they run their companies.
People from fintech, SaaS, AI-native, deep tech, climate and creative tech often join in, making the exchange rich in perspectives and real use cases.
If you are experimenting with AI, already using it in your daily work, or curious about how Singapore's startup community is adopting AI, you are welcome to join a warm and global group of founders who enjoy learning from fellow builders one conversation at a time.
Entry is free. You only pay for what you order.
**eChai Ventures - Your Startup's Global Neighborhood.**
Startups grow faster when founders are plugged into the right conversations. That's what eChai makes happen, connecting founders across cities, stages, and markets.

PL & Compilers Meetup (weekly agenda in desc)
**Special topic for this week: How knowing MIR can help you to understand what truly happens when you use iterator! Let's learn something stackoverflow cannot explain!**
Have you ever wondered what happens after you write your program in any programming language and hit "Run"?
Welcome to the new group dedicated to Compiler Engineering so we can discuss language design, static analysis, VMs, and code generation. Topics related to hardware architecture and FPGA are also welcomed!
**Join us weekly and learn about:**
* The vision for this group.
* A crash course on how to start learning compiler dev (including top book recommendations).
* An open networking session for showcasing projects and finding collaborators.
* Weekly topic to learn about particular aspect of programming languages or hardware
**Who is this for?**
* Anyone building DSLs or new languages.
* Anyone curious about low-level systems and programming
* Anyone hiring for compiler/toolchain roles (come pitch your jobs!).
* Anyone who wants to learn more about programming languages nature!
This isn't a lecture—it's a conversation. Come share your projects and get motivated! This group is not super serious, so if you want to just yap about how bad is the new C++ standard you can find some listeners here.
See you!

**💡 Speaker:**
Zabeer Farook, Technical Architect, Credit Agricole CIB
**Talk:**
Natural Language Analytics in the Lakehouse : Why is it harder than it looks?
**Abstract:**
AI agents and the Model Context Protocol finally make natural language analytics on your lakehouse technically plausible — any LLM can discover your schema, plan a query strategy, and return results in seconds. But connect an agent directly to your Iceberg stack and something uncomfortable happens: it returns confident, fluent, wrong answers with no signal that anything is amiss. This talk demonstrates exactly why — wrong metric formulas, invented business terms, incorrect join paths — and introduces the architectural layer that fixes it: the unified semantic layer, exposed as an MCP API. A glimpse at what becomes possible when agents call meaning, not just schema.
**Bio:**
Zabeer is a seasoned Technology Architect with nearly 20 years of experience in enterprise software across FSI and fintech, including retail banking, wealth management, KYC, regulatory reporting, and payment systems. He brings strong expertise in digital transformation, legacy modernization, and data engineering, with hands-on experience in AWS, Kubernetes, Kafka, Flink, Spark, APIs, and DevOps. Actively contributes to the Singapore tech community, co-hosting Kafka meetups and delivering technical talks, with a strong focus on real-time data streaming and event-driven architecture.

I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
CBusData: The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again.
We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all.
Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.

Humanist Program
The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event.
We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be.
Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk.
Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online

Data & Analytics Wednesday - The Data-Driven Brand
**The Data-Driven Brand: Using Analytics to Shape Perception**
Can you use analytics to improve tacos? This being CBUSDAW, we think the answer is probably “yes”, but we’re not sure how to implement or test this theory.
For our April meetup we’ve got Sara Kear, CMO of Condado Tacos, to investigate this delicious question. Sara will explore how she blends quantitative data and qualitative customer feedback to shape brand positioning and drive business decisions. We all know that marketing and analytics go way beyond attribution. Sara will show how Condado uses customer insights to inform product and pricing strategy.
She’ll also highlight how Condado leverages customer feedback at scale to influence operational priorities, positioning marketing as the voice of the customer across the organization. In the last 12 years Condado has gone from one location in Columbus to 52 locations across 10 states, so we’re guessing there’s more to that growth than really good guac (though the guac probably helps).
Ultimately, this talk focuses on the intersection of art and science—using data to inform creativity and build a brand that resonates with customers in a measurable way.
**About Our Speaker**
Sara Kear is Chief Marketing Officer at Condado Tacos, where she oversees brand, restaurant design, menu and pricing strategy, off-premise including catering, and customer data strategy. Since joining in 2021, she has helped grow the brand from 19 to 52 locations while building a data-driven marketing organization focused on loyalty and customer insights. Condado has since been named to the Inc. 5000, recognized as Breakout Retailer by Chain Store Age, and consistently ranked among FastCasual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers.

Prompt vs. Paintbrush
AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s?
This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation?
We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee.
Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
