Tech Talk: From AI Experiments to Production: How Teams Actually Scale AI Workflows
Speaker: Eric Paulsen (Coder)
Abstract: AI is everywhere in development right now. Coding assistants. Autonomous agents. Background workflows. AI-generated PRs. But most teams are stuck in the same place: 1) Experiments work, production doesn’t; 2) AI writes code faster, but workflows break; 3) Agents generate output, but teams can’t trust or scale it; 4) And governance gets added too late, slowing everything down.
This meetup is for developers and platform teams who want to understand what it actually takes to move from AI experimentation to production-ready workflows. We’ll focus on how teams are redesigning their development workflows to work with AI, not just adding tools on top. That includes how to structure workflows, manage agents, and introduce the right level of control without killing developer velocity. No hype. No tool comparisons. Just a clear look at why most AI workflows fail and what actually works at scale.
Tech Talk: AI-DLC: Navigating the AI Development Lifecycle with Kiro
Speaker: Ryan Tan (AWS)
Abstract: This session explores the evolving AI Development Lifecycle (AI-DLC) through the lens of Kiro's current capabilities and future direction. We'll cover Kiro's desktop/CLI deployment model and the path toward broader accessibility, early-stage developments around Kiro's upcoming autonomous agent capability, and how an agnostic philosophy — enabling choice of IDE, LLM backend, and cloud provider — shapes a flexible, developer-first approach to AI-assisted software development. Whether you're evaluating AI coding tools or architecting developer platforms, this session will give you a practical view of where the ecosystem is heading.
Tech Talk: Earning the Right to Step Away: AI Agents in Everyday Practice
Speaker: Billy Michael (GlobalLogic)
Abstract: You've seen the demos. This is what happens after them. It's a look at the agents and skills we actually run inside GlobalLogic, day to day, on our own engineering and business work, and what it took to trust them.
We started where most teams do: Claude Code in a terminal, with a human framing every task and pressing enter. The interesting part begins when no one is at the keyboard. I'll walk through the pattern we use to get there: build a skill by hand, live with it until it's boring, then let an event pull the trigger. The unit is always the same, a skill; what changes is how much autonomy the stakes justify.
Tech Talk: Trustable Agentic AI
Speaker: Xiangpeng Wan (Netmind)
Abstract: NetMind.AI's NarraNexus is a ready-to-run team of agents that already remember, collaborate, and use tools. Start from a template, or compose your own.
