5 Non-Technical Skills That Will Make You a Better Software Engineer
As Software Engineers, we always hear that we need to improve our "soft" skills to reach higher levels, but when we ask for examples, we get things like "teamwork", "intellectual curiosity" or "communication", which are vague terms.
In this talk, I will show you an engineering approach to non-technical skills with 5 concrete tools. Right after the session, you will be able to:
- Communicate tech debt to non-technical people
- Design and track experiments
- Prioritize your work
- Do better estimations
- Drive technical decisions in your team

Using Oniro Blueprints to create music (Even more embedded music !)
Oniro is an ambitious Eclipse project, one of its challenges is to defragment existing IoT ecosystems.
In the Eclipse Oniro project, along the distributed OS for consumer electronics, we're proposing a collection of "blueprints" use cases and their implementations using embedded software on reference hardware.
Those minimal viable products are not only used for demonstration or validation purposes, but they can serve as a base to create production-ready solutions.

Software Ethics in a Software World: Where are we?
Either as consumers or as producers, we are all confronted with software systems, and/or to their ethical consequences. And this is not just about advanced AI- or weapons- systems: it's our everyday life and, for most of us here at least, job and duty. Although there exists a wide range of material and assets available out there on the subject, it's not always easy to know where and how to do things right, at least for us.

Common mistakes done by my customers
As an Eclipse Expert for more than 10 years, I have met a lot of customers, in a very large amount of domain, using RCP as the native technology for their development.
Even if they have found tutorials on a specific point or followed a training, they did not always apply the good practices for their projects, and they become technically out of date or unmaintainable.
In this talk, I will summarize the most common mistakes I have seen on my interventions and how we have fixed them.
