Speaker - Brian May

Brian May is a DevOps and software engineer with a passion for building reliable systems and elegant code. By day, he wrangles Kubernetes clusters and streamlines CI/CD deployment processes (example). By night, he experiments with personal software projects that explore new ideas and technologies.

Brian’s programming journey began with BASIC and Pascal on the Commodore 64, and today spans Elixir, Go, and his favorite language, Rust. Outside of work and coding, he enjoys photography—especially capturing animals and birds at Healesville Sanctuary. Despite the name, Brian May does not play the guitar—but he does enjoy composing resilient infrastructure and clean software.
