Sebastian Gebski - agilista, blogger, geek, software engineering manager & architect - still knee-deep in the code & ... enjoying it more than ever. Obsessed with the ideas of continuous delivery & development agility (ease of change over perfect up-front design). His origins are in C++ & .NET/C# (since 2001), but resisting Erlang (first) and Elixir (next) was just not an option. Currently he shares his time between Warsaw & Copenhagen, helping big financial services enterprises in their quest to build software that doesn't suck :)

Tomasz Kowal is a software developer currently working full time with Elixir at ClubCollect. He started with Erlang 6 years ago and is still amazed by the power functional languages provide. In his free time he likes tinkering with flying robots

He is a member of the Ecto core team and maintainer of the MongoDB adapter. He's Google Summer of Code 2015 alumni, where he worked on Ecto and it's MongoDB integration supervised by José Valim himself. When not programming he enjoys reading books, travelling, and sailing - no matter if sunny, rainy or stormy - it's even better if all of those are combined!
