Big Tech on Your Resume: Why Does It Matter? with Aditya Rajagopalan

Does experience in Big Tech really change your career trajectory, or is it overrated? In this session, we’ll explore why Big Tech experience can carry weight in the market, what people often gain beyond the brand name, and whether it opens different kinds of opportunities over time.

We’ll discuss how working in large tech environments can shape your thinking, expose you to strong delivery frameworks, build leadership capability, and expand your professional network. But we’ll also challenge the idea that Big Tech is the only path to career growth, and unpack whether you really need it on your resume to progress in tech.

"TechWalking" - Networking + Walking

Are you a tech professional looking to network beyond the screen? Look no further than my upcoming #TechWalking event! ‍

Join us for a refreshing walk around the scenic Albert Park Lake. It’s the perfect chance to connect with industry peers while getting in some steps!

I know many of you have been tuning in to my online events, but we've never had the opportunity to meet in person. Let's change that!

Check out the video from the last event: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/MovUsNFg-qk

We'll kick things off at 10 am sharp at the Albert Park Fitness Station. Please, don't be late! We're hitting the trail around the lake as soon as we gather. And trust me, you won't want to miss it – unless you're up for a bit of a sprint to catch up! (we're going anti-clockwise)

This event is pet and kid-friendly, as long as your little ones and furry friends can manage a 5 km walk, they're more than welcome to join.

Looking forward to meeting you all in real life!

Will AI Replace Managers Before It Replaces Developers? with Justin Kabbani

We often talk about AI changing how we work, especially when it comes to technical roles. But what about the rest of the organisation? Who gets impacted first — managers or developers?

In this session, we’ll explore different angles on how AI is reshaping both technical and non-technical roles, and how responsibilities across teams are evolving. If you’re thinking about your long-term career path in tech, this discussion will help you reflect on the shifts ahead and what they might mean for you.
