About us
Volunteer organizing of hybrid virtual and in-person meetups on topics of interest around important and trending technology tools, Amazon Web Services, cloud computing, network connectivity, AI, or whatever learning topic piques our collective interest. We want to highlight projects built locally and raise awareness of technologies available to our region, while encouraging interruptions in the form of deep dive questions.
Feel welcome to ask random questions like "how does the cloud relate to my current technology skills? what can I learn from cloud professionals that I might not have heard in school? how does Alexa work? what skills will help me land a job? how can aws change my business? I've heard of Amazon, what is AWS?"
We host advocates and learners of all levels to talk about how we #BuildOn 200+ Amazon Web Services (AWS), including integrations and considerations into workstations, IoT networks, on-prem data centers, other clouds (Azure, Oracle, GCP), as well as other emerging technology tools and trends. We encourage those new to technology or cloud to check us out, and we encourage builders of all levels to bring 5-15 minute demos along.
Started at Arrowhead Research Park at New Mexico State University in 2021 to further the community learning, business awareness, student engagement, career opportunities, and general entrepreneurial-garage-hobbyist spirit. We aim to learn from, serve, educate, and entertain the diverse people of the The Borderplex, New Mexico, and surrounding rural areas.

AWS X NFL Big Data Bowl #9 | Check-In #2
·OnlineOnlineThe 2027 Big Data Bowl has begun [submission date Jan 6]
Unveiled to the public is hauntingly large trove of NFL's Next Gen Stats powered by AWS. 3 years of player-tracking data largely currently available for hundreds of athletes, apparently including including Travis Hunter, Drake Maye, Troy Franklin, and Cam Skattebo
Join us to check-in and discuss your work, get started on your effort, or just be a fly-on the wall to ask questions
No Machine Learning, programming, or football background needed. Principles apply to other sports science and human movement domains. As NFL Network judge Cynthia Frelund puts it, the goal isn't box-score statistics—it's process over outcome. If you can read a scatterplot, you can build a model, compete, and build a career
Thanks to all the Data Scientists across the USA & globe who joined and contributed to our conversation diving into the NFL Big Data Bowl last month. $100,000 in cash prizes, trips for students, and, according to our unofficial napkin math during the meetup, a 10% hire rate of participants into sports analytics positions
You are challenged to design position-specific player development protocols. Uncover actionable linkages between 10 Hz Combine sensor tracking data and NFL game performance. Help coaches and evaluators identify hidden talent
Open mic- questions, distractions & tangents welcome
Esta sesión será en inglés. Si quieres apoyar como voluntario con traducción al español o LSE para sesiones, escríbele a Bryan 👐
