About us
NY AI Engineers is a community for builders working with AI. It brings together AI engineers, machine learning practitioners, and software engineers who want to learn from peers and stay close to how AI is built and deployed in production. The focus is high signal conversations, real systems, and shared lessons from the field.
AI Engineers is run by Fonzi. Fonzi is a talent marketplace that connects elite engineers with top AI companies through a monthly, high signal, structured hiring process called Match Day. We run AI Engineers communities in both New York and San Francisco.
If you are interested in speaking at a tech talk in either location, email lauren@fonzi.ai with your LinkedIn profile, the location you want to speak in (NY or SF), and a short abstract on how you are applying or building with AI in your current role. Use the subject line “AI Engineers Abstract Submission”.
