**Hello ProductTank Slovenia community,** We’re excited to invite you to a special upcoming ProductTank Slovenia event featuring **Dušan Omerčević**, founder of **Codeplain.ai.** Dušan is a builder, entrepreneur, and product-minded leader working at the intersection of technology, innovation, and practical problem-solving. He has held senior engineering and product leadership roles at **Najdi.si** and **Zemanta**, and founded **Cleanshelf**, and, without claiming causation too boldly, it does seem that companies he touches tend to become acquisition-worthy😉. Najdi.si was acquired by **Telekom Slovenije**, Zemanta by **Outbrain**, and Cleanshelf by **LeanIX**. He is now focused on building in the AI space with **Codeplain.ai**, turning complex technology into practical tools people can use. At this event, we want to go beyond titles and success stories. We want to learn from someone who is doing important work, creating impact, and navigating the real challenges that come with building products and companies. This time, instead of a longer interview, we’ll start with a short warm-up and then pull questions directly from the audience so the community can lead the conversation. **Why attend?** This format gives you the chance to ask what you really want to hear about, from product and entrepreneurship to leadership, AI, and lessons from building meaningful things. It’s also a great opportunity to meet and connect with other members of the ProductTank Slovenia community, with plenty of time for networking before and after the session. **Event details** 📅 **Date:** 06.05.2026 🕒 **Time:** 18:00 📍 **Location:** Teads, Dunajska cesta 5, Ljubljana

**\*\*\* We've Moved! Bold Penguin - 6555 Longshore St, Dublin, OH 43017 \*\*\*** Talk by Todd Nussbaum LGTM is not a Strategy Pull requests are where quality is won or lost, and too many teams still treat reviews with a rushed "LGTM". In this talk, you'll learn a practical, repeatable approach to high-quality PR reviews that balances speed with risk management - covering how to triage changes quickly, review in layers, and write comments that lead to better outcomes without friction. We'll also show how QA and developers bring complementary lenses to the same review, turning acceptance criteria, scenarios, and observability into shared responsibility instead of production surprises. You'll leave with a lightweight framework and concrete habits for authors and reviewers that make reviews faster, kinder, and more effective. **AGENDA:** * See updates to parking below * Doors open at 5:30, feel free to come and hang out before! * Official start of the meeting is at 6:30pm * After the meeting is done, we will go hang out at a nearby space in Bridge Park! If you can, please sign up via meetup by noon the day of the meeting so we can have an estimate headcount for food :) We always order extra, so feel free to join us even if you don't get signed up! Thank you to Bold Penguin for providing the food and location! **Parking & Arrival:** **Parking:** Parking in Bridge Park is free. The closest lots are the Mooney Garage and the Hotel/Endres Garage. **Entry:** The doors to the office are to the right of PINS. The street level door and elevators lock at 6pm. If you arrive after that, someone should be there to let you in, else call the number posted. Take the elevator to the 2nd floor. Once you exit the elevator, turn right. \*\*\* We are a bunch of professionals, students, and geeks who are excited about Ruby programming language ([http://ruby-lang.org/](http://ruby-lang.org/)) and Rails framework ([http://rubyonrails.com/](http://rubyonrails.com/)) and the joy they have brought back to web development. Our main goal is to share the love of the Ruby and Rails ecosystems with anyone that is interested.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!
