About

Whether you’re architecting the next generation of data systems or battling bottle-necked data pipelines, Data Engineers London is your one stop meetup for all things data engineering! We are a networking and knowledge sharing space for the data engineering cohort in London. From the experienced engineers staying on top of the latest developments to those trying to enter the industry, we are open to all levels. We have delved into a range of topics – pipeline architectures, data security, the rise of AI and have even questioned the environmental impact of our architecture decisions. Come along to mingle with your fellow data engineers, share some data engineering stories and stay on top of the rapidly evolving data landscape.

5:30-5:45pm: Gathering at the Data Governance, Risk & Compliance Theatre.

6:00pm: Talks Start

TALK 1

The API-fication of Data Engineering with Data Contracts
Speaker: Samhita Sarkar, Data Engineering Tech Lead at HP Inc

Traditional data engineering is often reactive, relying on fragile pipelines that break whenever upstream software changes. By adopting Data Contracts, teams can shift toward a formal, versioned interface modelled after software APIs. This architectural evolution treats data as a public product, ensuring stability and ending the cycle of constant firefighting.

TALK 2

A data platform: The one we planned and the one we ended up with
Speaker: Luke Ashe-Browne, Co-Founder and Director of Technology & Consulting at Tyme Technologies

7:30pm: End of event.
