Senior Cybersecurity Consultant & GRC Lead specializing in secure software architecture and application security across cloud and on-premises environments. Focuses on helping organizations design, build, and operate secure software in fast-moving development environments where automation, DevOps practices, and AI-assisted coding increasingly shape how applications are created and delivered. Works across information security pre-sales, IT systems architecture, and secure development environments, supported by extensive experience in IT operations and project management within the banking industry.
Specializes in Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) with deep expertise in ISO 27001 (Information Security Management), ISO 20000 (IT Service Management), and ISO 22301 (Business Continuity Management). Combines strong foundations in enterprise security governance, operational resilience, and the ITIL framework with hands-on experience aligning security with software development practices. Focuses on bridging development, architecture, and security by translating security frameworks and regulatory requirements into practical guidance for engineering teams, including secure architecture design, threat modeling, and secure software development lifecycle (SSDLC) practices. Helps organizations strengthen application security while maintaining compliance and resilience in an era of rapidly evolving technologies such as AI-assisted software development.

An interactive workshop examines how AI coding assistants and autonomous agents are reshaping software development, developer roles, and the skills needed to remain relevant.
AI is transforming software development by changing the way applications are built and by redefining the skills expected from software professionals.
As the development environment evolves from AI coding assistants into increasingly autonomous AI agents, one question becomes harder and harder to ignore:
Will AI replace software developers, or fundamentally change their role?
This interactive workshop is about you and your professional future. As AI permeates more business functions that have required human expertise, the big question still looms: Can – and will – AI replace you or will you manage to stay relevant and important?
Join two experienced tech professionals, who are currently architecting and deploying next generation AI solutions, and will try to tackle this crucial topic for software engineers.
Spiros and Konstantinos will present and debate what comes next, based on hard facts and realistic expectations rather than wishful thinking. By taking an active part in this interactive workshop, you’ll gain valuable insights while helping others prepare for the future. Through engaging discussions, practical scenarios, and audience participation, we’ll challenge assumptions, exchange perspectives, and explore how to stay relevant in an AI-driven industry.
What you will get from this workshop:
• Understand how AI is changing software development and the role of developers.
• Explore AI’s current capabilities, limitations, and future potential.
• Identify the technical and human skills that will matter most.
• Discover ways to adapt and remain relevant in an AI-driven industry.
• Exchange ideas and perspectives with other professionals.
Software developers, engineers, technical leads, architects, engineering managers, and IT professionals interested in the future of software development.
• A laptop to access the AI model services provided during the lab. • Basic understanding of software development. • No prior or advanced AI knowledge is required.
• Interactive 60-minute workshop. • Practical scenarios and audience participation. • Key takeaways and recommendations.
A discussion of building global success and how artificial intelligence is transforming the world.
AI is transforming software development, making coding, knowledge, and execution more accessible than ever. As AI evolves from a productivity tool into the interface between human intention and creation, a deeper question emerges: what does it mean to be a capable human in the age of AI?
When a junior engineer can achieve in hours what once required years of experience, what truly distinguishes a senior professional? Is it technical expertise, or the ability to exercise judgment, ownership, critical thinking, creativity, and empathy?
This panel explores how AI is reshaping careers, learning, leadership, and human value. Where does deep expertise still matter? What skills remain scarce when knowledge and execution become abundant? And how should developers, students, HR leaders, and CTOs prepare for a future where anyone can build, but not everyone can create value?
Audience takeaway: Understand how the definition of talent, expertise, and impact is changing, and what skills will matter most in the AI-native world.
