Vishal Alhat

Vishal Alhat

No pitch decks. No service demos. Just real solutions to real developer problems.

That's the promise Vishal Alhat brings to every stage. A former AWS Hero turned Developer Advocate at AWS, he has spent over 11 years as a practitioner — architecting cloud-native systems, automating infrastructure, and learning (sometimes the hard way) what it actually takes to ship resilient applications at scale.

Vishal specializes in AI/ML, Security, DevOps and FinOps. He speaks at major global conferences on zero-trust architectures, MLOps pipelines, and responsible GenAI development — always from a developer's perspective, focused on solving pain points with open standards and battle-tested patterns, not promoting platforms.

His community impact speaks for itself: 5,000+ developers mentored, the Community Builder of the Year award, and the HashiCorp Ambassador recognition — credentials earned by the ecosystem, not by a corporation. Through technical writing, open-source contributions, hands-on workshops, and speaking engagements, Vishal makes complex cloud concepts accessible to developers at all skill levels.

Whether he's helping a team adopt zero-trust without the complexity or demystifying secure AI pipelines, his mission is simple: help developers build boldly, ship confidently, and sleep peacefully.

Vishal is available for global speaking engagements and does not require travel or accommodation assistance.

Gunnard Engebreth is a software engineering manager, architect, author, and conference speaker with more than 30 years of experience building software and leading engineering teams.

His career began during the early web and Dot Com era in Atlanta, where he moved from Perl into PHP and never really stopped building things. Since then, he has worked across application development, APIs, architecture, cloud infrastructure, DevOps, legacy modernization, and engineering leadership.

Gunnard's current interests are where software engineering is heading next: AI-assisted development, agentic software engineering, developer productivity, automation, and the challenges of applying these technologies to real-world production systems. He is particularly interested in how teams can use AI to move faster while maintaining the testing, architecture, security, and engineering discipline required to ship reliable software.

He is also passionate about legacy application modernization and the practical techniques required to bring aging systems into the modern development ecosystem without simply throwing them away and starting over.

A longtime advocate for Free and Open Source Software, Gunnard has contributed to projects including WordPress, Devilbox, and DischordPHP. He has written for php[architect] and is the author of two PHP 8 books published by Apress.

Gunnard has spoken at MadisonPHP, LonghornPHP, Techlahoma, Chaos Carnival, and other technology events. He currently works as an engineering manager and architect while continuing to build software products, experiment with emerging technologies, and write about what he learns.
