Bruno (o elcuervo para los amigos) fue criado por un grupo de salvajes de la tribu de telecomunicaciones, ellos lo llevaron al mundo de lo distribuido y protocolos asíncronos. El avance de la ciudad en las tierras de estos salvajes y las olas migratorias del pingüino emperador llevo a este desarrollador a las tierras del HTTP en donde busca unir a los dos mundos. Fanático de los protocolos y la investigación tiene hoy su laboratorio secreto en New Context. Es opensource-dependiente, mantiene varios proyectos, es de Géminis y disfruta de largas caminatas en la playa y cenas a la luz de las velas.
Augusto wrote his first web apps in C until he discovered Perl and realized dynamic languages weren't that bad. Since then he's been working for early-stage startups doing all sorts of developments in Python, Java, Ruby and Erlang. He is a long time open source advocate and has contributed to several projects including Unicorn and Chef. He's also very interested in distributed systems and is maintainer of a popular leader election library written in Erlang.
Nicolás (also known as foca) has been writing horrible code for
the past 10 years, each line worse than the last. At some point he
realized Eclipse was actually a horrible tool for anything-but-Java
and decided he would learn a new editor. And for the past 8 years he's
been using vim, so he's confident he can show a thing or two about it.
He usually hacks on ruby and javascript open source thingies at
http://github.com/foca. He lives in Montevideo, Uruguay, where he
works as an engineer for GitHub.
Nico is a standup comedian. When he's not doing that, he opens the Illustrator and tries to make the web a better place, one website at a time.
Lucas loves to program, he is a 24/7 cupcake loving Ruby committed software developer. In the rare moments when Lucas is not in front of a keyboard he enjoys playing bass, hanging out with his girlfriend and making cupcakes.
Lucas es profe en la UNLaM y la UNTreF, desarrollador y un entusiasta de la industria. Nadie puede entender cómo, pero en algún momento podía hacer mortales y otras acrobacias. Ahora hace Tai Chi Chuan, trabaja en uno21 y da charlas de git.
Matías tiene basta experiencia en la industria y dos años de experiencia en capacitación para empresas. Le gusta hacer las cosas bien y disfruta haciéndolo. A punto de recibirse, distribuye su tiempo entre la facu, dar clases y desarrollar en uno21. ¡Y ahora lo pueden encontrar en encuentros como el RFD!
Desarrollador, músico aficionado y adicto a las charlas. Ha creado desde pequeñas aplicaciones web hasta complejas arquitecturas empresariales, actualmente es el CTO de HopIn (http://hop.in). En su tiempo libre toca música e intenta practicar deportes (sin mucho éxito).
I started teaching in 2003 with Teach for America in my native Washington, DC. I first taught middle-school students, then taught Computer Science to high schoolers, and finally helped start a new charter middle school in a role most easily described as “Vice Principal.” I love teaching developers because you are giving people the power to build their dreams.
Chris is 23 years old freak from Poland, easy to recognize by his strange hairdos. Some time ago he moved to Montevideo in far far away Uruguay, where people are boring and drink weird herbs from weirder vessels. He met there PoTe, another 23 years old freak with stylish afro. Chris used to kick Pablo's ass in soccer, while he is kicking Chris' ass in PES... They work together on cool Ruby, Python and Go projects, they do Open Source, they experiment with new ideas and have fun with every written line of code.
Wynn Netherland is a full stack web creative. He spends his days shipping Awesome™ at GitHub. He is author of several books including Sass and Compass in Action (Manning 2012). He is active in the development community as host of The Changelog, a weekly podcast and blog showcasing new and interesting Open Source projects.
Ernesto es fundador de OmbuShop; Ing. en Sistemas (UTN), Lean Practitioner y Rubyista. Hace años que trabaja exclusivamente con startups. Luego de sufrir con Java y fat startups, descubrió Ruby y Lean Startup y vio la luz. Hoy pasa sus días programando; hackeando funnels; e ideando MVPs y experimentos. En su tiempo libre coordina meetups de Lean Startup y Ruby; contribuye a proyectos de eCommerce y OpenData; y juega al ping-pong semi-profesionalmente.
Santiago is a Rails Core Team Member, devoted Open Source developer and Co-Founder of WyeWorks. He's a well rounded Software Engineer, perfectionist and passionate about creating extremely high quality products using the very best practices. As a side effect of getting his Computer Science degree, he is now proudly addicted to Coca-Cola and chocolate.
Steve Klabnik hacks on Hackety Hack and other open source projects. He was a Ruby Hero in 2011. In addition to speaking about hypermedia APIs he's also writing a book about those. He also teaches the best Ruby and Rails classes in the world with Jumpstart Lab.
Nick Sutterer is proud to be a member of the Ruby open source community. His Cells and Apotomo projects have been bringing increased view modularity and event-driven programming to Rails for years. He has enjoyed attending, and speaking at, Ruby conferences around the world. Buy him a beer sometime, and with very little prompting, he will tell you why there should be no such thing as a double-render error, why you should not confuse your models with your resources, and how to play a mean bass in a punk rock band.
Gastón programaba principalmente en Php y Perl hasta que conoció Ruby en el año 2005, a partir de ese momento comenzó a difundirlo entre sus amigos y no tan amigos.

Martin is an old programming language maniac who has been coding for a living the last 30 years in all type of crazy projects. He considers himself an eternal apprentice, and that's why he spends most of his time doing coaching and training at Kleer, as teaching is a very effective learning technique. He loves community and was part of the group starting the Agiles Latin American conferences, contributes to Alt.NET, the open source side of the .NET world, and his favorite platforms are Python, Ruby and JavaScript. He blogs frequently (in Spanish) about coding stuff at http://CodeAndBeyond.org.

David works as a developer at GitHub making GitHub Enterprise even more awesome. When he's not coding you can probably find him improving his circus skills around the beautiful San Francisco.
Andy Atkinson has worked as a full-stack Rails engineer on consumer-facing projects at LivingSocial for 2 years. He has been part of the rapid growth of the engineering team from 10 to 80, from working independently, to being part of a team of engineers, designers, and managers. In that time he has experienced the challenges of continuing to release new products and features to consumers at the same rate of speed and level of quality within a rapidly growing organization.

Hanneli (a.k.a. @hannelita) is a Brazilian developer working at Caelum, addicted to code, learn new programming languages, frameworks, blow capacitors, do some C programming to relax and commit useful (or unuseful) code for random Open Source Projects that she finds at Github.
