Conf T with your SE is coming back for a new season in 2027
Originally launched in 2019, Conf T is a technology podcast hosted by seasoned Solutions Engineers Bryan Young and Tom Porto, built around the conversations technology professionals actually have when the slide deck is closed and the whiteboard comes out.
Networking, cybersecurity, infrastructure, cloud, AI, automation, emerging technology, career development, industry trends… if it touches the world of IT, it’s fair game.
Bryan and Tom bring years of experience designing, selling, troubleshooting, and occasionally arguing with complex technology in the real world. Expect technical deep dives, practical lessons from the field, conversations about where the industry is headed, interviews with people doing interesting things in tech, and the occasional detour when somebody asks a question that sends the conversation completely off the rails.
The goal isn’t to read you a data sheet or drown you in acronyms. It’s to understand how technology actually works, why it matters, and what happens when you try to deploy it in the real world.
Whether you’re an experienced engineer, an SE, working toward your first role in technology, or simply someone who enjoys understanding how all this stuff works, pull up a terminal and join us.
