Ed Cooper β Senior Engineer, Omnea
How to Tame Your AI Feature
"Shipping an AI feature that demos well is easy; shipping one enterprise users trust with six-figure decisions is another story. Ed will walk through the levers they pulled to get two AI features from "it works" to "we trust it" at Omnea β with some surprising learnings along the way"
Ryan Cormack Principal Engineer & Jamie Toloui Senior Back End Engineer - Motorway
APIs in the Fastlane - How Motorway are building new, and evolving existing APIs with a design first approach
"Learn how Motorway are building new, and evolving existing, APIs across their entire platform. They follow a design first approach ensuring our documentation, SDKs and implementation are always kept in sync by leveraging Smithy to document our entire system. We'll look at real world examples of APIs handling millions of requests in a well documented, defined and type safe way so it always does exactly what it says on the tin."
Johannes Stein - Head of Engineering & CTO
What I've learned building a JavaScript engine with AI
"What if we create a JavaScript engine without the bloat of backward compatibility? Focusing on modern language features such as let/const, arrow functions, zero dynamic code execution and TypeScript compatibility. This talk covers the journey of creating a new JavaScript engine and runtime, detailing what went well and the lessons learned along the way."
