Fundamentals of Business Management
Hello everyone ,let me start by giving you one of my favourite quotes, "Success is an organised activity".
Today we are going to be talking about Business Management .
Business management at its core involves the actions of planning, organising, leadership and understanding the difference between good and bad control.
We are going to be taking a look at these aspects and see how they fit into your business.
An understanding and mastery of the concepts will give you an edge over others in your industry and set you up on the road to success.
If for any reason you can not make it contact us on 0405 648 822, and we will organize a free one-on-one briefing with you
I hope to see you there !
Cheers
Tim and Pam
AI Engineering Meetup - Building AI That Ships.
AI is no longer a future concept — it's being engineered into production systems today. We're rebuilding a practitioner-led space where Melbourne's AI engineering community connects, learns, and ships better work together.
After a year away, we're back – and bigger in focus.
Same community, sharper lens: the *engineering* of building AI systems that survive contact with production. Our first event back is themed "Building AI That Ships." Two talks from local practitioners, then time to mingle with the people working on the same problems you are.
**Who is this for**
AI engineers · software engineers shipping LLM features · ML engineers and data scientists · product managers building AI products · technical leaders.
**Important Note**
After clicking "Attend" on this meetup, you'll also need to register through this [link](https://invites.envoy.com/group-invite/8UV8AVxbXWNFdtTq/exceeded) to gain access to the venue!
**Run time**
* **5:30 – 6:00** — Doors open · food + drinks · networking
* **6:00 – 6:10** — Welcome
* **6:10 – 6:30** — Talk 1: Designing the Harness around AI agents

* **7:50 – 8:00** — Wrap up
See you there! 🙌
AI Adoption is a deeply personal journey
We've spent the last few years measuring and celebrating AI adoption as if it were one thing - when really it's a deeply personal journey, and no two of us are on quite the same one. How it lands depends on where you're starting from, on how you think you'll be seen and measured for using it, and on what it's quietly doing to the craft you love.
Drawing not just on recent research and my own study, but on living it and talking with many others on the same path, this talk weaves those layers together. You'll leave with a clearer sense of your own journey, and that you have far more control over this technology's effectiveness than you might realise.
However you're feeling about all of this, you're not doing it wrong.
**Agenda (time in Melbourne/AEST)**
* 5:30pm Networking
* 6:00pm Welcome
* 6:05pm Main Presentation
* 6:35pm Q&A
* 7:00pm Networking
* 7:30pm Close
**This will be a HYBRID event:**
**Zoom link -** will be posted 1hr before event starts.
**Our Speaker**
**Annie Vella**
Annie Vella is a Distinguished Engineer at Westpac New Zealand, where she focuses on AI adoption, governing agentic systems at scale, and transforming the software development lifecycle. With over 20 years of experience across startups, scale-ups, and large enterprises in four countries, she has spent two decades on both sides of the engineer/manager pendulum — and actively encourages others to do the same. Having fallen in love with computers when she got her first Commodore 64 at age six, Annie has cared deeply about the craft ever since. That curiosity led to a Master's of Engineering exploring how professional software engineers experience the impact of AI coding assistants. Through her writing and speaking, Annie's aim is to help engineers and leaders find joy and pride in the work ahead.

Talk:
Kafka Connect On-Prem Troubleshooting Playbook
Abstract:
When a Kafka Connect sink stops writing, the failure can be hiding in one of several layers, Database, the connector config, the Connect worker, the schema, or the topic itself. In this session, Usman walks through a live Oracle JDBC Sink troubleshooting demo built on the kafka-docker-playground, showing a repeatable classify → fix → verify approach. We cover how to check connector and task state via the REST API and internal Kafka topics, navigate worker logs efficiently, use the Connect admin logging API for dynamic trace logging without restarts, Grafana metrics, manipulate sink offsets for replay.
Bio:
Usman Khan is a Technical Support Engineer on Confluent's Global Support team, based in Melbourne and covering the APAC region. He specialises in Kafka Connect, working daily with engineering teams to diagnose and resolve connector and framework issues across both on-premises deployments and Confluent Cloud.

🎤 **Talk Details**
**Preparing the “What’s New in AWS” Segment**
Speaker: Matthew Merriel
Level: 100
Format: Lightning Talk
“What’s New in AWS” is a regular part of Melbourne AWS User Group meetups—but how is the segment put together?
Matthew will provide a behind-the-scenes look at the process used to find, shortlist, and prepare recent AWS announcements for presentation at the meetup.
This session is designed to help volunteers understand what is involved and make it easier for more community members to take on the segment at future events. No previous speaking experience is required.
***
**RAG to Riches: AI-Powered Market Intelligence on Amazon Bedrock**
Speaker: Sanjana Kailash
Level: 200
Format: Lightning Talk
What if a strategy team never had to manually scan more than 50 data sources again?
In this lightning talk, Sanjana will walk through how she built a fully automated AI-powered market-intelligence pipeline using Amazon Bedrock, retrieval-augmented generation, and AWS-native services.
The solution transforms more than five hours of Monday-morning manual research into a polished briefing delivered directly to inboxes—with no manual effort required.
This will also be Sanjana’s first public presentation, and we’re excited to welcome another new speaker to the Melbourne AWS community.
***
**Intelligent Malware Protection Using AWS GuardDuty**
Speaker: Bharat Wadhwa
Level: 200
Format: Full Presentation
This presentation showcases a cloud-native malware-protection solution for Amazon S3 using Amazon GuardDuty Malware Protection.
The solution replaces legacy antivirus approaches with intelligent, event-driven malware detection and automated security workflows.
Bharat will explore how this approach can improve scalability, operational efficiency, and security visibility across AWS environments.
Bharat also began his public speaking journey at a Melbourne AWS User Group event and now returns with a full technical presentation.
***
🙌 Could This Be the Start of Your Speaking Journey?
This month, Sanjana will take the stage for her first-ever public presentation. Bharat also began his speaking journey at a Melbourne AWS User Group meetup and is now returning with a full technical session.
Every experienced speaker started with a first talk.
Whether you have an idea for a full presentation, a lightning talk, or would like to help prepare and present the “What’s New in AWS” segment, the organisers are happy to help you take that first step.
Speak to us at the meetup or submit an idea through our website:
