I am a senior backend and platform engineer at eBay with over 14 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.

Hi there, my name is Katharina Covadonga Clören.
I discovered my passion for data analysis and reporting during my studies – quite unexpectedly, in a student job. That’s when I realized how much I enjoy analyzing complex patterns and bringing them to life through creative visuals. For me, data visualization is the perfect blend of analytical detective and creative artist: I love uncovering hidden insights and presenting them in a way that’s clear, engaging, and impactful.

For the past two years, I’ve been working as a consultant with a focus on Data Analytics and Data Storytelling. What fascinates me most is the incredible potential and variety that lies in good visualizations. Before starting my consulting career, I spent a year traveling around the world – driven by curiosity, a love for adventure, and an open mind for people, cultures, and new perspectives. That same openness shapes the way I work today: Data is everywhere, and it always tells a story – you just have to listen (and look) closely.

When I’m not building reports or analyzing data, you’ll find me moving (like yoga, bouldering or lifting heavy stuff), enjoying food from around the world, or exploring the planet.

It is safe to say that I have an odd mix of experiences. After graduating from Penn State University, I worked for the federal government for a decade in various analyst roles doing things as mundane as personnel budgeting and as exciting as presenting to the Director of the FBI and testifying as an expert to grand juries.

After leaving civil service, my next decade was spent attempting to perfect theme park vacations by working for TouringPlans.com. We used statistics and lots and lots of research to optimize peoples theme park trips and I assisted in many ways from research tasks and writing to starting a travel agency to filming YouTube videos that have over 1 million views.
