Name: Builders After Hours: How Engineers Are Shipping AI in the Real World
Start: 2026-02-26T22:00:00.000Z
Location: Intuit Offices

This **[Obsidi® Tech talk presented by BMO](https://app.obsidi.com/event/0e634fe7-7a28-495a-970d-95f1e441af6c?utm_source=obsidi&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=techtalks-2026-feb24&utm_content=meetup-hyperlink&utm_obsidi_source=events)** reframes FinOps as a value-transformation engine, not a cost-cutting function. We’ll explore how leading organizations are shifting from just “how much did we spend?” to “what value did we create?” as they scale AI, GenAI and data intensive platforms.

You’ll gain insight into how FinOps can enable faster innovation without sacrificing accountability, align engineering, finance and business leaders around shared outcomes, and ensure AI investments are continuously optimized for effectiveness & value - not just efficiency.

**What You’ll Learn:**

1. Actionable guidance to evolve FinOps from cost governance to strategic decision support
2. Linking AI cloud spend to business value & outcomes
3. Key metrics that move beyond savings to measure realized value, impact and return

Optimizing for Business Value: FinOps in AI Driven Transformation

Online event

AI is everywhere.

Shipping it is the hard part.

**[Builders After Hours](https://app.obsidi.com/event/339b6973-5aaa-4f32-9708-927b91d707f2?utm_source=obsidi&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=techtalks-2026-feb-26&utm_content=meetup-hyperlink&utm_obsidi_source=events)** brings engineers and software developers together for an evening of real conversation about what it takes to engineer, deploy, and scale AI in the real world—beyond demos, beyond theory, and beyond hype.

This is a space for builders who care about architecture, trade-offs, timelines, and the decisions that separate experiments from production systems. Expect practical insight, peer-level discussion, and meaningful connections with engineers doing the work today.

As part of the conversation, engineers from Intuit will share how teams at Credit Karma approached building AI-enabled platform capabilities following the launch of the OpenAI ChatGPT ecosystem—focusing on the engineering choices, constraints, and lessons learned while moving from idea to production.

**Why should you be in the room?**

* Connect with engineers and developers shipping real AI products
* Learn how teams are thinking about AI platforms and delivery today
* Take away insights you can apply immediately to your own work
* Build relationships—not leads—inside Atlanta’s engineering community

Hosted by Obsidi® in collaboration with Intuit, Builders After Hours brings together builders and leaders to exchange insight, gain fresh perspectives, and leave with meaningful takeaways and connections that carry forward.
