☁️ **Clouders, ¡bienvenidos al meetup presencial de mayo del AWS User Group Medellín!** 🎉 En colaboración con **RIWI.IO** Un espacio para inspirarte, aprender y seguir construyendo tu camino en la nube. 📅 **Sábado 16 de mayo de 2026** 🕤 **9:30 AM - 12:00 PM** 📍 **Calle 16 # 55-129, Piso 3, Outlet — Auditorio** 🎟️ **Entrada gratuita** 👥 **Presencial** *** **Certificaciones, Seguridad y el Futuro Tech: lo que nadie te cuenta** Tendremos dos charlas pensadas para ti: una para entender cómo las certificaciones impactan (o no) tu carrera tech, y otra para dominar la seguridad en AWS desde IAM hasta agentes de IA. *** 🎤 **CHARLA 1: Sin certificación, ¿Hay contratación?** **Speakers:** **Diana David** — IT Recruiter, HR Manager y Mentora Tech Psicóloga con más de 8 años de experiencia en el sector tech. Ha trabajado en compañías con presencia internacional y acompañado procesos de mentoría para perfiles tech que quieren impulsar su carrera a nivel global. **Lucas Vera** — AWS Community Builder, Arquitecto Técnico y Desarrollador Full-Stack Más de 11 años en desarrollo de software y +5 años como entrevistador técnico en procesos de selección para perfiles de ingeniería. Especializado en soluciones serverless sobre AWS. ¿Cuánto pesa una certificación en la industria? ¿Cómo sobresalir si no se tiene alguna? ¿Cómo hacer la diferencia cuando sí se tiene una? Dos perspectivas — recruiting y técnica — en una sola conversación. *** 🔐 **CHARLA 2: IAM, Perímetro e IA: Un Recorrido Práctico por la Seguridad en AWS** **Speaker: Juan David Alvarez Builes** — Senior Cloud Security Consultant en AWS ProServe Ingeniero de Sistemas de la Universidad EAFIT. +15 años en ciberseguridad y arquitectura TI. 13 certificaciones AWS activas + CISM. Speaker en RSA Conference 2026 y Ekoparty 2025. Basado en Medellín. Un recorrido práctico desde las bases: identidad y control de acceso con IAM, controles de perímetro organizacional como SCPs y RCPs, y los servicios clave de seguridad en AWS — todo con lecciones aprendidas reales y **demo en vivo**. Porque cuando un agente de IA actúa en nombre de un humano, cada política que no esté bien definida se convierte en una superficie de ataque a velocidad de máquina. *** **¿Qué incluye el evento?** ✔ Networking con la comunidad cloud de Medellín ✔ Dos charlas técnicas y de carrera ✔ Espacio para preguntas y debate con los speakers ✔ Snacks **¡Regístrate y asegura tu lugar!**

NOVA Code and Coffee is an inclusive, informal, co-working session. People of all skill levels are invited. The concept is simple, bring a laptop and ideas, we'll provide the coffee and donuts! Here's how it works: 1. At 10:15 everyone introduces themselves and briefly describes what brought them to Code & Coffee today (project, homework, networking, etc) 2. For the rest of the day, folks work in the communal space on their projects providing one another help and conversation as needed. Oh and they usually drink coffee and tea too! That's it! Hope to see you there! **Location** Our hosts are the Fairfax City Economic Development Building: [10300 Eaton Pl, Fairfax, VA 22030](https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=d7298231ca2df594df822003f9a93517c788fceefe1fcbb79c8976696e341bc6JmltdHM9MTc1MzIyODgwMA&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=4&fclid=180d0745-3b7f-69a1-23a2-11433a7868e5&u=a1L21hcHM_Jm1lcGk9MTA5fn5Ub3BPZlBhZ2V-QWRkcmVzc19MaW5rJnR5PTE4JnE9RmFpcmZheCUyMENpdHklMjBFY29ub21pYyUyMERldmVsb3BtZW50JnNzPXlwaWQuWU44NzN4ODI4MTk2Mjg0NTk5MDM4MTU0MiZwcG9pcz0zOC44NjE0NDYzODA2MTUyMzRfLTc3LjMwMjE3NzQyOTE5OTIyX0ZhaXJmYXglMjBDaXR5JTIwRWNvbm9taWMlMjBEZXZlbG9wbWVudF9ZTjg3M3g4MjgxOTYyODQ1OTkwMzgxNTQyfiZjcD0zOC44NjE0NDZ-LTc3LjMwMjE3NyZ2PTImc1Y9MSZGT1JNPU1QU1JQTA&ntb=1) Conference Room A- Large, Floor 1 This is a new venue for us, so give us some time to get more details about it. Driving is the best option. There is plenty of free on-site parking. Otherwise, we are a 22 minute bus from the Vienna Metro Station. Bicycling from Vienna is possible but difficult, though once you are here, there's a bike rack in the garage behind the building, and there's also a Capital Bikeshare dock 15 min walk away. **Sponsored by:** Thank you [Fairfax City Economic Development](https://gofairfaxcity.com/) and [Mason Enterprise Center](https://enterprise.gmu.edu/) for making this event possible! **Thank you so much to our wonderful sponsors!** Organized by [DMV Petri Dish](https://www.dmvpetridish.com/) **[Code of Conduct](https://github.com/NoVACodeCoffee/admin/blob/master/code-of-conduct.md):** We value the participation of each member of the community and want all attendees to have an enjoyable and fulfilling experience.

Non-programmers are absolutely welcome—you don’t need to know how to code to join. This meetup is for anyone interested in tech. You can share what you’re working on, propose ideas, or just talk about technology. We typically meet once a month at the Centreville Regional Library, with occasional meetups in Chantilly or other nearby libraries depending on availability. We usually start with a totally optional intro circle. You can share as much or as little as you’d like—your name, background, interests, what you’re working on, or simply pass and listen. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to reach out: timothyfilippone@gmail.com

Join us for another session of our study group as we continue our coverage of the book Domain-Specific Small Language Models. In this session, we will attempt to cover Chapters 13 on "Creating end-to-end applications", which explores RAG and Agents and Chapter 14, on "Advanced Components for LLM Applications", which explores GraphRAG. This isn't just a lecture! Come ready to ask questions, share insights, and code along. Whether you're a beginner or have some experience, this is the perfect opportunity to continue to learn together. If you plan to work with the code on your own laptop during the session, try and download the code from here https://github.com/virtualramblas/Domain-Specific-Small-Language-Models ahead of time.

Be more confident using English for personal and professional success. Practice communication skills for your current or future job. This program is supported as part of Carnegie’s Libraries as Pillars of Education and Democracy initiative, providing $5 million in funding to strengthen English language learning and college access programs across 11 libraries.

Join our new group’s third meeting. Meet fellow tech enthusiasts west of the beltway. ​Because our group is new, we have a poll for the direction we want to take this new group. ​[https://submatrix.net/article/Meetups/e9ym4fr8Ca](https://submatrix.net/article/Meetups/e9ym4fr8Ca) ​For this event, we will be running a working meetup. ​Our meetings are a great place to work on and show off what you do. We are always welcoming. ​Our format is great for people who have started on but not finished one or several side projects. ​We will start off with basic introductions and what we are working on and what our goals are. We’ll break the rest of the meeting into two working sessions. In between, we’ll do a quick check-in to see how folks are going. If the RSVP is full, come anyway. We'll likely have space.
