Agentic AI
Welcome to the April'26 edition of PyData Ireland. This meetup is in association with Quantum Black, AI by McKinsey.
Agenda for the day:
* 17:30 – Arrival
* 18:00 – Start of talks (Details below)
* *Jitendra Gundaniya*: **Building Agentic GenAI Pipelines with Kedro Builder (Beginner-Friendly)**
* *Dmitry Sorokin*: **Let AI Agents Manage Your ML & Data Pipelines**
* 19:30 – Networking
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**Talk 1:** Building Agentic GenAI Pipelines with Kedro Builder (Beginner Friendly)
**Speaker Name and Designation:** Jitendra Gundaniya, Senior Software Engineer at QuantumBlack, AI by McKinsey
**Speaker LinkedIn:** [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jitu11](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jitu11)
**Talk Description:** This talk shows how Kedro Builder, a visual drag-and-drop tool, can lower that barrier. We'll walk through building a simple agentic pipeline visually dragging LLM context nodes, connecting prompts and tools, and exporting a working Kedro project, all without writing boilerplate by hand. Think of it as a learning ramp: see the pipeline structure first, then dive into the code.
**Key Takeaways:**
* How a visual builder can make agentic pipeline patterns (LLM + prompts + tools → agent → output) more approachable for beginners
* What `llm_context_node` is and how it simplifies GenAI pipeline creation in Kedro
* A live walkthrough of building and exporting a GenAI pipeline using Kedro Builder
* Where the visual approach helps (pipeline scaffolding, boilerplate) and where you still need code (agent logic, output schemas)
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**Talk 2:** Let AI Agents Manage Your ML & Data Pipelines
**Speaker Name and Designation:** Dmitry Sorokin, Senior Machine Learning Engineer II at QuantumBlack, AI by McKinsey
**Speaker LinkedIn:** [https://www.linkedin.com/in/dmd40in/](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dmd40in/)
**Talk Description:** This talk explores how traditional data & ML pipeline frameworks can be wrapped with an MCP server, enabling AI agents (e.g. LangGraph, Claude Code) to connect and manage pipelines programmatically. We’ll look at how this approach combines the deterministic nature of production data & ML workflows with the flexibility and reasoning capabilities of modern AI agents.
**Key Takeaways:**
* How to expose data & ML pipelines through an MCP server
* How AI agents can orchestrate and manage existing workflows
* A practical pattern for combining deterministic pipelines with agentic flexibility

DubJUG 264: GONG & Agentic AI Tools
This month, we're venturing over to GONG HQ to her two talks from staffers SDE Vanja Tesin, and Senior Engineering Manager Anthony Brady.
DETAILS & OFFICIAL BOOKING >>>>>
https://ti.to/dublin-java-user-group/264-gong-hq
Check your schedule first (it's not cool to not show!)
## **Talk 1:** GONG & Agentic AI Tools
Gong built an agentic AI solution called Claude Code to help developers work more effectively across its complex microservice architecture of over 100+ repositories. Using a multi-agent system with specialised rules, skills, and subagents, it automates development tasks and reduces time spent on research and context switching. The result is faster development and better pattern compliance, reducing complex tasks from days to hours. Join Vanja Tesin to discover how.
## **Talk 1:** **Resilience in Microservices**
In the distributed landscape of modern backend architecture, the question isn’t if a service will fail, but when.
Without robust fault tolerance, a single latent dependency can trigger a cascading failure across an entire ecosystem.
Anthony's talk will focus on how Gong overcame some of those challenges and how they are implementing resilience utilising patterns such as Circuit Breakers, Rate Limiters and others to maintain stability and provide graceful degradation even when downstream services are under duress.

What If Your AI Could Be a Team? - Chad Green
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise.
We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration.
Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team.
