Today, he coaches product leaders. Rich is the author of "Money Stories: Communicating the Value of Product Work" and "The Art of Product Management."

Important note: please sign up on the Google Developer Group platform to attend the meetup: https://gdg.community.dev/events/details/google-gdg-cloud-zurich-presents-gdg-cloud-zurich-19-march-2026-meetup-32/ Join the GDG Cloud Zürich community for an evening of technical talks on Google Cloud, real-world insights, and networking with local practitioners. This meetup is intended for developers, architects, and engineers working with Google Cloud technologies. Agenda ⏰ 17:30: Doors open ⏰ 17:55: Doors close (late entry may not be possible due to building security) ⏰ 18:00: Welcome – Graham Polley, Thomas Hug, Filippo Broggini, Erin La, Alessandro Recca and Rachel Werner (organizers) ⏰ 18:05: Talk 1 – Fundamentals of securing your GCP workloads, Natalie Godec, Zencore ⏰ 18:35: Talk 2 – How Google SREs Use Gemini CLI to Solve Real-World Outages, Riccardo Carlesso & Ramón Medrano Llamas, Google ⏰ 19:05: Networking & Apéro – Supported by Google Cloud, Zencore, ABB, and Datwave Talk details Talk 1 Title: Fundamentals of securing your GCP workloadsSpeaker: Natalie Godec, ZencoreDescription: So you've vibe-coded your Super Smart AI Agentic App and are ready to set it free on the Internet. You are sure it will do well, it solves this amazing use-case, with such clever technology! You pick your favourite cloud provider, decide on a runtime - perhaps, Kubernetes or Cloud Run - buy a domain, ask Gemini to wire up a deployment pipeline. Happy days! But here's the thing. You can't vibe-code security. Every single thing you deploy to the cloud needs to be secured. And it's a hard task! Even for cybersecurity professionals. But fret not. Cloud providers, such as Google Cloud, have already put in the work to make your job easier. And in this talk, you will learn the fundamentals of securing your workloads, (almost) end-to-end. Talk 2 Title: How Google SREs Use Gemini CLI to Solve Real-World OutagesSpeaker: Riccardo Carlesso & Ramón Medrano Llamas, GoogleDescription: Google Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) use Gemini CLI to accelerate mitigation during live production outages. Acting as a tightly constrained, terminal-based agent, it uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to integrate live operational data. This allows operators to quickly triage alerts, execute human-approved fixes, pinpoint codebase bugs, and generate automated postmortems, ultimately eliminating toil and speeding up recovery.

Feeling down? Sometimes depressed? Can't focus? Negativity & stress? Recent losses? Creativity in career and personal life hindered by mental blocks? Sometimes we never fully recover from traumatic experiences. Whether it was yesterday, last week or a year ago, traumatic experiences - a loss of a loved one, losing a job, a breakup - can leave you scarred. You talk about it and feel a little better, but it never goes away. After you hang up the phone, it's still there; the sadness, the cloud, the over-thinking, the worry, the guilt. You try to focus, but you're blocked. You try to look forward into new experiences, new relationships but a cloud is hanging over you, casting a shadow on what you once considered a bright, cheerful future. What happened to your courage? Your strength of character? You're 'why not' attitude? Whoever said 'time heals' must have had a special time machine, because after weeks, months, years, you're wondering - when exactly does that kick in? Sometimes it seems like drinking or drugs are the way to go. But they wear off, and now the problem is still there with added side effects from the drugs. At this free local Meetup event we will talk about: * What causes grief, anxiety and depression to become chronic. * Is it possible to regain your joy and happiness even after traumatic experiences? * How to break away from negativity and focus on the future * What are the steps to take to get control of your mind and your emotions? Learn about a safe, gentle, do-it-yourself counseling that can be done in the comfort of your own home. Let's explore safe, effective solutions for healing from traumatic experiences. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center.
