About This Event

What are the best engineers doing with coding agents that you have yet to incorporate into your dev stack?

Top engineers from OpenAI, Cognition, Qodo, Temporal, and Agentastic will share how they actually work with Claude Code, Codex, and other coding agents. They’ll show their setups, explain how they divide work between themselves and their agents, and share the tricks that help them ship more without spending all day supervising.

What we’ll get into

  • Workflow demos: How a frontier lab engineer actually operates day to day. Voice-driven coding, juggling model subscriptions, orchestrating a fleet of coding agents, and the small habits that compound.

  • Context engineering: What agents need to know about your codebase, and how to give them that context without overwhelming them.

  • Harness setup: The tools, instructions, and feedback loops that help agents do useful work with less hand-holding.

  • Multi-agent workflows: Getting agents to implement, test, and review in parallel without stepping on each other’s work.

  • and more

Actual configurations, shortcuts worth stealing, things that broke, and what the speakers changed as a result. Bring questions about your own setup.

Agenda

  • 6:00 -> 6:30 pm: Arrival and welcome

  • 6:30 -> 7:30 pm: Panel, workflow demos, and audience Q&A

  • 7:30 -> 8:30 pm: Networking and closing

Speakers

  • Ilan Bigio, OpenAI. Founding member of OpenAI’s Developer Experience team. He led Swarm, the precursor to the Agents SDK, contributed to the Codex CLI, and wrote OpenAI’s guides on function calling and agent orchestration.

  • Melanie Warrick, Temporal. Senior Staff Developer Advocate for AI at Temporal. Previously a developer advocate for ML at Google Cloud and a founding engineer of Deeplearning4j, the open-source neural network platform for Java.

  • Shahmir Masood, Cognition. On the team behind Devin, the AI software engineer, and Windsurf.

  • Nnenna Ndukwe, Qodo. Developer Relations Lead at Qodo, helping engineering teams adopt agentic AI to write, test, and review code. She teaches the AI Code Review course on DeepLearning.AI.

  • Adel Ahmadyan, Agentastic. Founder of Agentastic.dev, a native macOS IDE for running Claude Code, Codex, and other coding agents in parallel, each in its own git worktree. Previously a Staff Software Engineer at Meta and Google.
