Reading the Tea Leaves: Developing Product Sense
Wed, Jul 22, 8:00 AMA lot of the time, product management can feel like the art of predicting the future. With incomplete data, lots of competing priorities, and stakeholders that always want to have a say, it can be challenging to make a call on what to do next. Building your product sense is a way to make sense of the madness. We'll explore what product sense is, how you actually apply it at work, and ways to develop yours. We'll run through some real examples of using product sense to make hard decisions, pass hiring tasks, and ultimately ship better products faster. **Our Speaker** Maxy Lotherington is the Head of Product & Design at InvestorHub, where she leads a team of product managers and designers. She's spent 10+ years designing impactful digital experiences, scaling product teams, and learning lots every day.

We warmly invite you to join our Community Conversations gathering on 17 July 2026 and participate in a Boroondara focused roundtable discussion that will help shape a shared vision for fostering greater social cohesion within our community. The consultation process will be guided by principles of reciprocity, respect and purposeful consultation. With the current challenges facing our community there has never been a more important time to contribute to this conversation. Insights and perspectives shared during the roundtable will help inform the second edition of the Creating an Inclusive Narrative publication, which will be shared with government and civil society organisations.

In this session, Nitin walks through what it actually takes to take an AI workload from POC to production on AWS, using the Well-Architected Framework as the lens. Covering cost controls, security guardrails, observability, and reliability for non-deterministic systems, with practical patterns you can apply immediately. * **SkillzLab Build Gen AI Well-Architected Reviews** **Well-Architecting App Build-off Review!** In this session, we will have review the apps from the previous session and perform AWS Gen AI Well-Architected Framework Reviews, with the drone going to the most **Gen AI Well-Architected** app on the night.

1. AI & Robotics in Supply Chain Cyber Risk 2. Hardware Hacking a Commercial Cam
Fri, Jul 31, 8:30 AM*Talk Submissions*: [ruxmon@proton.me](http://ruxmon@proton.me%2A%2A/) **1\. Cyber Risk in the age of AI and Robotics in Modern Supply Chains** **\- Adam \(xXPhantom\)** Supply chains used to run on people. Now in modern supply chins they rely heavily on robots, AI agents, and automated systems making decisions nobody reviews. We're talking about warehouse robots that can be hacked via Bluetooth and turned into worms that infect the entire fleet. GPS spoofing attacks that redirect drones mid-delivery. Nation-state actors quietly mapping the control systems of industrial supply chains. And AI models making procurement decisions that nobody fully understands including the companies running them. The line between a cyberattack and a physical attack is gone. When a robot gets compromised, products get misdirected, factories stop, and defective goods ship. The robots are impressive. The security protecting them hasn't caught up to them yet. 1. The robot workforce is already here, and it is largely unsecured. 2. Connected robots can have fundamentally different consequences compared to IT. 3. IT/OT convergence has permanently erased the isolation that once protected factory floors. 4. Poisoned AI/machine learning can introduce attack vectors that traditional security tools cannot detect. 5. Third-party vendor exposure is now the dominant entry point for supply chain attacks. **2\. Pixels vs Pliers: Hardware Hacking a Commercial Cam** At Ruxmon, almost a year ago to the day, an unstoppable force met an immovable objective... This talk runs through what happened when Peter (rankstar) was presented with a challenge after his last presentation - develop a hardware hacking workshop suitable for complete beginners through to pros. The chosen target: a commercial webcam. Co-presented with Claire (weirdc0rn), it will cover the technical details of the project, as well as the design process, challenges and successes. Suitable for those curious about hardware hacking or methods for sharing knowledge with the community. **Speakers** Peter is a secure software developer and vulnerability researcher for Break Point Research. Outside of work he enjoys making devices do things they shouldn’t and then never using them. Peter has previously worked as a vulnerability researcher at Azimuth Security, Penten and Australian Department of Defence. He has previously volunteered for the Bsides Canberra security conference and has developed badge firmware and hardware including the 2019 “Nopia 1337” and 2023 “bPod”. Claire is a cyber security consultant for Bluerydge and has presented on everything from threat hunting, vulnerability analysis and metaphors about prefetch forensics involving ducks. She is also the organiser of the Friday Ironing Club, a soldering group that runs workshops in Hawthorn ([https://www.instagram.com/fridayironingclub/](https://www.instagram.com/fridayironingclub/ "https://www.instagram.com/fridayironingclub/")). **Location** Room 080.02.002 at RMIT (Building 80) - 445 Swanston St, Melbourne **Discord** [Discord Invite](https://discord.gg/2qcaxce8Mw)
