Tampa Devs

Join us as we celebrate the sucess of speaker Ryan Clements, a long time Tampa Devs member, speaker and founder of Byte Bot. Ryan will share a story on how he and his team deleted $600K in Software Costs (and the hard lessons learned along the way). Which involved replacing an expensive third-party ETL platform, revealing techanical challenges that required every ounce of the teams techanical know how.

What Ryan didn't expect was how much the project's success would hinge on navigating ambiguity, building stakeholder trust, and making dozens of small decisions that would compound over time.

This session dives into a story of a migration where the wins, the failures, and the lessons were earned from being in the trenches.

As an added bonus, attendees should expect to walk away with practical patterns for building resilient data pipelines, strategies for moving forward when requirements are fuzzy, and a realistic picture of what it takes to ship a high-stakes project without burning out your team. Whether you're building ETL systems or any complex infrastructure, these lessons apply.
