AI is writing more code every day. The skill that won't get automated is knowing what to build and the system design thinking to make it happen at scale. In this full-day workshop, you will develop the judgment that sits upstream and downstream of implementation: how to validate a problem before you commit to a solution, how to understand the users you are actually building for (not the ones you imagine), how to prioritize ruthlessly when everything feels urgent, and how to establish feedback loops that keep you building the right things after you ship. These are not PM skills. They are the technical judgment that the best engineers have always had, and that becomes the defining skill as implementation gets faster and cheaper. What you will learn:- Validate before you build: surface real user pain, not solution-shaped stories- Understand users in context: close the gap between your mental model and theirs- Prioritize what deserves to exist: apply the Kano model and know what to cut- Translate decisions for stakeholders: navigate contested requirements productively- Close the loop: establish post-ship feedback habits that drive continuous improvement Who it's for: Software engineers with professional experience. No specific stack required. PMs and designers welcome.

Build the Right Thing: Product Engineering for Software Developers

Kent C. Dodds

JavaScript Framework authors face a brutal tradeoff when it comes to observability, either ship "blind" code and rely on 3rd parties to brittlely monkey-patch your API, or bloat your bundle with heavy observability dependencies. Both options hurt developer experience and performance.Tracing Channels changed this. A native, zero-dependency pattern that allows frameworks to emit events that are contextualized, and execution-correlated end to end.In this session, I'll show how tracing channels enable open observability APIs that progressively enhance with newer Node.js versions and gracefully degrade with zero overhead. We will also take a look at how popular libraries and frameworks that we use today implement their tracing channels and the patterns that allows them to benefit users and APM providers.Stop paying the instrumentation tax. Learn how to build observable frameworks by default, giving your users control without the cost.

Tracing Without the Tax

In this workshop we'll dive into the latest advancements in React and best practices for building modern React apps. We'll take a look at modern NextJS and React Router 7 Framework along with React's "React Server Components". We'll also talk about improving the data-fetching strategies of your SPAs along with options for migrating your SPA to modern React Router.

Modern React Architecture

Brad Westfall

AI systems have a new class of vulnerabilities that most developers aren't thinking about yet. This talk covers how they work, what's been exploited in the wild, and where the field is headed.

Breaking Artificial Intelligence

What happens when AI tools meet the realities of a 130-year-old organisation with legacy systems, complex processes, and high expectations for reliability? In this talk, I’ll share practical lessons from introducing AI-assisted software development in a traditional environment: where it genuinely accelerates delivery, where it fails, and how teams can use it responsibly. Expect real examples, workflows, and honest insights on using AI beyond the hype.
