Bio's
Dom Winsor
Creative and Data Technologist turned Product Manager.
Dom has worked across digital disciplines, primarily in the education and public sector starting out doing visual/interface design and development for web & eLearning products, leading to specialism in data-driven interactive applications, then data collection, analysis, and presentation solutions.
Many of these multi-faceted roles required agile development and delivery skills, which he currently applies to Product Management for large scale data integration platforms.
Dom also helps with local tech community activities, currently including volunteering at a kids code club, helping organise the Data Bristol user group and earlier this year co-organising a Product 'Un-conference'.
Phil Austin Senior Consultant at Adatis, Speaker
Phil has spent over 20 years down the data mines, working for household names and total unknowns. He knows a fair bit about BI and data warehousing using SQL Server and Azure. He also takes an interest in testing, query tuning, automation, development lifecycle and what is now known as DevOps, but don’t hold that against him.
Outside of that you might see him hacking around Bristol on a bike, sometimes for charity. If you buy him a drink he might tell you about the time a Nokia executive told him Apple don’t know anything about phones.
