Speakers:

Patricia Gimenez, Manager, Software Engineering
Talk: “The rocky road to Engineering Management”

The journey from "individual contributor" to manager in a male dominated industry was bumpy but sweet, challenging but enriching, it basically had it all! Speaking of mistakes made, lessons learned and success stories that made the journey worth it.
- Understanding if management is for you
- Dealing with expectations: your own and others'
- Adapting as you learn, finding the right mentors and allies

Emilia Ripeanu, Software Engineer
Talk: “Beyond Tables and Bottlenecks: How We Joined High Volumes of Data in Real Time”

Today, data is being generated at an unprecedented scale, and the ability to process and analyze it in real time has become fundamental. Joining large volumes of data in real-time poses significant challenges due to the limitations of traditional relational databases. In this talk, we will discuss our experience in overcoming those while exploring how we leveraged distributed architectures to process data beyond the bottlenecks, and highlight some of the key approaches that were critical to us. By sharing our insights and learned lessons, we hope to provide some real life examples for those looking to perform data processing at low latencies.
