What we’re about
Welcome to the "Tech Talks Basel" Meetup Group!
Join our growing community of engineers committed to making digital solutions work effectively and reliably.
Each month, we host focused technical gatherings to exchange insights on reliable digital engineering practices, discuss emerging tools, and explore technical challenges in an interactive setting.
Why Join "Tech Talks Basel"?
- Technical Deep Dives: Connect with practitioners and engineers in areas like SRE, Observability, Delivery Pipelines, DevOps, MLOps, AI, Testing, QA, and more. Expand your knowledge and broaden your professional network.
- Comprehensive Focus: We cover broad themes related to the acquisition and widespread adoption of state-of-the-art engineering practices, including operating models, soft skills development, and culture. We strongly believe that topics like SRE, MLOps, AI Engineering, and Observability are socio-technical practices where the cultural dimension is at least as important as the technical dimension.
- Practical and Friendly Environment: Our events combine technical substance with beer, pizza, and candid discussions about real-world successes and challenges.
Who Are We?
We are Swiss Digital Network, a Swiss network enabling reliable digital solutions through centers of excellence in key transformation domains. Our network brings together specialists, partners, and friends in DevOps, SRE, CI/CD, ML, AI, and MLOps.
Join the community to stay informed about our upcoming meetups. We look forward to meeting you in Basel!

See all- AI for Digital HighwayOh!ffice Basel, Basel
AI for the Digital Highway – Discover how AI is transforming DevOps and software delivery. From multi-agent automation at Electrolux, from intelligent pipelines at Harness to LLMs as chat interface to AI-driven software staging. Our speakers will share real-world examples that are reshaping infrastructure automation and engineering workflows.
Opening: Welcome & Introduction
Tobias Sager, Managing Consultant, Swiss Digital Network***
Talk 1 – Scaling DevOps with Multi-Agent AI
Alina Astapovich, Site Reliability Engineer, Electrolux
Markus Mäkelä, Platform Engineer, Electrolux
Repetitive tasks often slow down DevOps teams, draining time and resources. At Electrolux, the team developed InfraAssistant, an AI-powered solution made up of collaborative agents that automate infrastructure management, onboarding, and ticket resolution. This talk will explore the system’s architecture, how it was deployed in a real-world environment, and the impact it had on operational efficiency. Attendees will gain insights into building autonomous systems with AI, drawing from practical experience, design patterns, and lessons learned along the way.***
Talk 2 – AI-Driven Software Delivery
Julian Klodzinski, Senior Sales Engineer, Harness
CI/CD can be complex, repetitive, and error-prone — but AI can change that. In this talk, Harness shares how it integrates AI across its Software Delivery Platform to streamline and simplify the most painful parts of the pipeline. From verifying deployments and reusing steps, to analyzing vulnerabilities and generating policies, AI becomes a true co-pilot in modern software delivery. The session will explore real use cases like continuous verification, vulnerability remediation, and how prompting is shaping a new interface for interacting with delivery systems.After the talks, stick around for networking, over bites and drinks!
