No language wars, no sponsor sales pitches. Just pure software craftsmanship, distributed systems, developer tooling, and production war stories over pizza and beer.
Thessaloniki has incredible engineering talent — from startups and multinational R&D hubs to remote developers and open-source contributors. SKG Devs exists to bring us all under one roof.
Go, Rust, TypeScript, Python, JVM, C++, or Zig — it doesn't matter what language you write. We focus on resilient architecture, distributed systems, concurrency models, and software design principles that transcend specific ecosystems.
Real incident post-mortems, scaling bottlenecks, database failovers, and hard-earned engineering lessons. The honest talks you actually want to hear — battle-tested insights from people who have been paged at 3 AM.
Hands-on explorations of developer productivity, agentic coding, internal developer platforms, infrastructure as code, and modern continuous deployment. We care about shipping faster without breaking things.
Strictly zero sales pitches and zero vendor promotional demos. Honest peer conversations connecting local teams, remote engineers, and students over pizza and craft beer, not business cards or recruitment quotas.
Here is what we're preparing for the community. Subscribe to the newsletter to get official dates and RSVP access.
Bi-monthly technical sessions hosted at OK!Thess in Thessaloniki. Focused 25-minute deep dives followed by open Q&A and community discussion.
Discovered a game-changing CLI? Built a wild side-project? Hit a bizarre bug? Share it in a rapid-fire 5-minute lightning talk without slides or formality.
Every event will be 100% free to attend, with food and drinks provided by local engineering-first sponsors who want to support the ecosystem.
Looking for members, speakers, local sponsors, and volunteers to co-create SKG Devs.
SKG Devs is an open, independent initiative. Whether you write code, have a production war story to share, want to sponsor drinks, or help coordinate events — the door is wide open.
Open to every developer, engineer, architect, and tech enthusiast in Thessaloniki. Subscribe to get priority RSVP access to free meetups, vote on upcoming talk topics, and join technical peer discussions.
Have you tackled a painful production bug? Scaled a database under pressure? Built an interesting tool or internal workflow? We love honest, practical engineering talks without corporate marketing.
Help keep SKG Devs 100% free for everyone by sponsoring pizza, craft beer, or professional recordings. Gain genuine visibility as an engineering-first employer among the city's best developers.
A vibrant tech ecosystem takes a village. If you want to assist with AV setup, event photography, streaming, graphic design, workshop mentoring, or co-organizing, we'd love to collaborate with you.
