SUMMARY:2026 Sept Meetup
DESCRIPTION:Portland AI Engineers\n**=== [RSVP](https://luma.com/8exiyrca)
  on Luma ====**\n\n**Presentation:** A product leader\, not an engineer\, 
 built a live margin system for a Direct-to-Consumer brand that lacked visi
 bility into the true per-order profit after discounts\, shipping\, third-p
 arty logistics\, and ad spend. This talk walks through the build end-to-en
 d: defining the problem in Claude Cowork with the stakeholder\, developing
  in Claude Code through a GitHub repo that auto-deploys to a VPS\, front-e
 nd in Claude Design\, and n8n running the data pipeline in production. The
  honest throughline: how far one product person can carry a real system\, 
 and where the limits are.\n\n**Bio:** Craig Calder brings 20 years of seni
 or product management leadership\, from startups to eBay and New Relic. He
  now runs an AI implementation practice for product leadership and works h
 ands-on with the production AI stack: LLMs\, agentic systems\, and knowled
 ge graphs.\n\n**Schedule:**\n\n* 5:00 - 5:30: Snacks and networking\n* 5:3
