About us
The Google Cloud Budapest Meetup is for those interested in the Google Cloud Platform (GCP). The organizers come from a dynamic tech company and have several years of hands-on experience with GCP.
At the Meetup, we’ll talk about interesting case studies and share some tips and tricks on infrastructure, app dev, data engineering, and machine learning. We’ll also share interesting blog posts and information related to the Meetup in our Facebook group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/googlecloudbudapest/).
All levels of expertise are welcome. Whether you’re a newbie or a seasoned practitioner, feel free to join! If you have a specific interest in a particular area, let us know and we’ll do our best to organize events centered on your preferred topics. You’re also welcome to share your experiences by addressing the group as a speaker.

Google Cloud Budapest Meetup: AI-Native Engineering vs. Core Fundamentals
Google Cloud Budapest Meetup is back!
Join us on June 17th at the Aliz office in Budapest for an evening of deep-tech insights, practical engineering strategies, and networking with fellow Google Cloud and AI enthusiasts.
As AI tools reshape the development landscape, the definition of a "good engineer" is shifting. This meetup isn't about generic AI prompts - it's about the concrete skills and old-school engineering discipline required to build reliable, scalable, AI-native applications.
🎫 The event is free, but seats are limited. Save yours now! 👇

Talk 1
Becoming a Context Engineering Professional in Your Domain by Tamás Imets (AI Solution Architect), Aliz
The most underrated skill in the AI era: context engineering. How to structure prompts, design context windows, and become a force multiplier in your technical domain. Practical patterns from the field that turn good engineers into AI-native practitioners.
Talk 2
The Revenge of the Fundamentals: old-school ideas winning in the AI era by Máté Czékus (Lead Architect) and Aamna Tayyab (Head of Delivery), Adroit Group
The core argument: LLMs accelerate code generation are non-deterministic and inconsistent by default, which makes foundational engineering practices and tooling more important then ever. Teams that skipped the fundamentals, or was still hand rolling checks when AI arrived are paying for it at integration boundaries — it'll be way more harder to guide agent to write compliant and consistent code, and even harder to review the huge amount that was generated.
Three fundamental tools doing more work than they get credit for:
- JSON Schema — enforcing the contract between modules
- TDD — writing the tests before the code
- Linters and formatters — static governance that guides the shapeand correctness what the model sometimes misses even with context
Máté brings a live demo: one real multi-cloud cost explorer example showing what AI tooling produces by default vs the disciplined version side by side.

📣 Meet the speakers
Tamás Imets
An AI Solution Architect at Aliz who has been tinkering with tech since age 13 - moving from taking apart toys for robots to founding an AI startup where he led product and engineering. When he’s not building AI-native systems, you’ll find him backpacking through East Asian megacities, playing squash, or experimenting with new musical instruments.
Máté Czékus
He is a software engineer at Adroit Group who spends his days planning, testing, and refactoring systems while exploring the latest technologies. A passionate specialty coffee enthusiast and functional programming nerd, he believes that if you can build something, you should also be able to deploy and maintain it.
Aamna Tayyab
As Head of Delivery at Adroit Group, Aamna works at the intersection of product and engineering analyzing requirements, shaping architecture, and turning ambiguous ideas into work teams can actually deliver. Alongside her job, she co-organizes GDG Budapest and stays active in the Google developer community.
