Track Host Hero Engineering

Robert Winslow Robert Winslow | Co-founder & CTO | EraDB

The Hero Engineering track contains the stories of teams that build surprisingly high-impact data systems with few resources. These can be full-stack data platforms or can go deep into one particular area or problem solved in a creative way. Talks are typically delivered by startups working to build "a lot with a little". Each talk will distill the wisdom learned, so that you can take home impactful "mental tools" to use in your own work.
