We are looking to build a community of Young Jewish Professionals aged 18-35 who meet regularly to build friendships and professional networks. We meet twice a month, on a Thursday, in a central London pub for an informal gathering with beer, friends and chat. Come and join us and make some friends! Please contact us for the location each month. (This group is open to all who see themselves as Jewish frum or secular, Orthodox or Reform, Left or Right, Messianic or Lubavitch - all are welcome!)

We are back! This is going to be a monthly IN PERSON meet up in London. A very big thank you goes to Accurx who is hosting us in their amazing Shoreditch offices. This will include access to facilities including coffee! 😻☕️ **Want to know more? 👇** As with all CoffeeOps, this is an interactive, chatty, build your own adventure type of meet-up. Instead of booking in experts to *learn* *from*, we gather a group of practitioners to ***learn*** ***with***. We have been running for over 4 years now and often get feedback that this is the most useful meetup people join! The event is approximately 90 minutes and always starts by brainstorming topics to discuss. The group then votes on the most relevant/interesting to them and we then cycle through the topics trying to discuss each deeply, but in a time bound slot. To get an idea of topics, you can check out our remote board [here](https://easyretro.io/publicboard/h404NF84Uje4tCcxpJdHr4Ycs9B3/a4a35d2b-181b-409b-832e-a729be1af79c). The general gist is anything is fair game, though we tend to revolve around software delivery and definitely lean towards the more Ops-y or DevOps-y side of things.

Hi everyone! 👋 We are excited to announce our **July** **in-person event** 🎉 Register now and join us for a wonderful evening hosted by **Monzo** 🥳 **Broadwalk House, 5 Appold St, London EC2A 2AG** Please provide us with your **name** for registration purposes. **Agenda - rough timings** * **6:00 PM** \- Refreshments and registration * **6:30 PM -** Welcome and a few words from our hosts * **6:40 PM** \- 🗣️ **Write Your Wins Before Someone Else Writes Your Story:** [Aditi Sharma](https://www.linkedin.com/in/aditisharmaaa/) \| Engineering Manager **8:15 PM** \- Networking/Discussion * **7:10 PM** \- Break * **7:30 PM** \- 🗣️ **Learning Go with AI, whilst staying in the driver's seat**: [Cynthia Mbulu](https://www.linkedin.com/in/cynthia-mbulu/) \| Software Engineer \*\*\* **Write Your Wins Before Someone Else Writes Your Story \| [Aditi Sharma](https://www.linkedin.com/in/aditisharmaaa/) \| Engineering Manager** Learning a new programming language can feel intimidating—but every stage of an engineering career comes with learning something new. In this interactive session, Aditi Sharma shares her journey from writing her first production code at Oracle, to building systems at Goldman Sachs, spending nearly nine years at Amazon, and now leading two engineering teams at Monzo. Along the way, she'll explore a challenge many women in technology face: we're often much better at doing great work than talking about it. Drawing on research from Lean In and her own leadership experience, Aditi will lead a practical exercise to help attendees recognise, articulate, and celebrate their achievements with confidence. Whether you're writing your first Go program or taking your next career step, you'll leave with practical tools to own your accomplishments and invest in your growth. **Speaker Bio:** Aditi Sharma is an Engineering Manager at Monzo, where she leads two engineering teams building consumer-facing products and platform capabilities. Before joining Monzo, she spent nearly nine years at Amazon leading large-scale engineering initiatives, including customer-facing AI experiences, after beginning her career as a software engineer at Oracle and Goldman Sachs. Across every role, one thing has remained constant: the need to learn continuously. Passionate about helping engineers grow, Aditi enjoys mentoring, building high-performing teams, and encouraging others—especially women in technology—to recognise their achievements and pursue opportunities with confidence. **Learning Go with AI, whilst staying in the driver's seat** \| **[Cynthia Mbulu](https://www.linkedin.com/in/cynthia-mbulu/) \| Software Engineer** Six months into learning Go at Monzo (and freshly back from my first GopherCon EU), I've gradually been figuring out how to use AI to learn this new language *with* me, rather than *for* me. In this talk I'll share: 1. the honest 1:1 with my onboarding buddy that made me re-think my learning workflow, 2. the value-vs-pointer-receiver bug that tripped me up and got me thinking about the nuances of Go vs JavaScript, 3. and lastly, the three tactics I now use to stay in the driver's seat If you're a new Gopher (or a career switcher in learning mode), you'll hopefully leave with a practical framework for using AI as a co-pilot (not the driver) and protecting the struggle that actually makes you a better engineer. **Speaker Bio:** Cynthia is a Software Engineer at Monzo and former NHS Hospital Pharmacist of 8+ years, who self-taught her way into tech in 2021 during the COVID pandemic. She's since built a varied career across the NHS, Accenture, the Financial Times, Gousto, and Monzo. In her spare time she documents her career-change journey on Substack ([healthtotech.substack.com](http://healthtotech.substack.com/)) and LinkedIn, partners with companies to help underrepresented groups build tech skills, and enjoys creating modern tech solutions for healthcare problems she lived through as a Pharmacist. \*\*\* 🙋‍♀️ **Want to help shape the future of Women Who Go (London)?** We're looking for enthusiastic new organisers to join our amazing team!

SQL Server 2025 was officially released in November of 2025, though, and contains a ton of improvements that will make our SQL Server deployments a bit faster, better, and more secure. There are even more improvements tucked into the release that never made a marketing blog or press release that you'll likely be learning about for the first time in this session! Join this session to learn about what makes your high availability a little more available, your performance a bit more performant, and your database more developer and app-friendly. Come spend an hour with SQL people talking SQL Server 2025 – the good, the "not quite ready for prime time", and the hidden awesomeness.

This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
