I am a senior backend and platform engineer at eBay with over 15 years of experience building and modernizing enterprise systems. I work on large scale billing and financial platforms that demand high reliability, strong security, and precise data correctness. I spend most of my time modernizing legacy architectures, designing cloud ready services, and building APIs and pipelines that hold up under heavy traffic and real world failure modes.

Lately, I have been integrating AI into engineering workflows, focusing on diagnostics, observability, testing, and automation that help teams move faster without sacrificing safety.

On stage, I share field tested patterns and mistakes to avoid, from migrations and cutovers to incident driven design and operational readiness. My goal is to give engineers practical takeaways they can apply immediately when building and modernizing systems at scale.

Duncan Boyne

Duncan Boyne

Duncan is a Power BI and Fabric consultant, based in Norfolk and running Boyne
Business Intelligence. He builds reporting that reflects how a business actually
works, rather than what looks good on a dashboard. Semantic models, report design,
governance, and a fair bit of working out where AI is genuinely useful in data work
and where it's just noise. Accessibility runs through all of it, and since he's
red-blind himself, it has never been theoretical.

The community is the part he'll talk about longest. He runs the Norfolk Power
Platform User Group and is the founder of the East of England Summit, creating
spaces for people at all levels to learn, connect, and grow. He found this community
by accident, and it's still the best accident he's made.

Outside of tech, he's a dad of two, usually being outnumbered at home by kids and a
dog. When he does get a bit of time, it's spent gaming, reading, getting lost in
manga, or listening to music that most people would describe as "a bit aggressive."
