Master API Testing with AI AWS API Gateway, secure APIs & SpringBoot

APIs are the fundamental backbone of modern engineering! They are no longer just for standard microservices; every major AI model (from OpenAI to AWS Bedrock) is consumed, managed, and secured via API gateways. If you are not testing the API layer, you aren't testing your product.
We see this demand reflected in 2024/2025 talent reports from platforms like Greenhouse and Ashby, where proficiency in APIs is the single best predictor of engineering role stability. Mastering API testing is more critical than ever and AI can help!
Join our inclusive Houston tech community for a hands-on, high-energy deep dive into the world of APIs. Whether you are an experienced builder looking to optimize your workflows, or you just have a curious mindset and a self-starter attitude, this is your chance to learn, debug, and grow alongside a great community.

Whether you are bringing years of experience to the table, transitioning into a new technical role, or simply have a curious mindset, this community is for you!
