Is the Design Process Really "Dead"? | Product Management Society x Miro Meetups
***🔗 Link to registration: [https://luma.com/s8mfiusl](https://luma.com/s8mfiusl)***
We’re excited to invite you to a special edition of our next meetup - for the first time ever, Product Management Society Berlin is teaming up with Miro 🤝
This session will explore a timely topic: the future of the design process in an era of rapidly increasing production speed. While some chief designers at major companies have declared the design process “dead” or no longer fit for today’s pace, others strongly disagree. What changes when prototypes can be created in minutes? What are the limits? What remains essential?
In the first part, we’ll open the floor to different perspectives from across the room. In the second part, we’ll work together to explore and shape ideas for a more resilient design process.
Whether you're a PM, designer, or simply curious, you’re very welcome to join the discussion and contribute your ideas.
👉 Spots are limited - register on Luma using the link above ^
Looking forward to seeing you there!

**Welcome and Introductions:** The Toastmaster of the Day (TMOD) often opens the meeting, who welcomes everyone and introduces the meeting's theme or agenda. The TMOD also introduces the key roles and functionaries for that session.
**Prepared Speeches:** A significant portion of the meeting is dedicated to prepared speeches. Members working through various projects in the Toastmasters education program deliver speeches based on their chosen projects. Each speech is evaluated by a designated evaluator who provides feedback on strengths and areas for improvement.
**Table Topics:** Table Topics is a segment where impromptu speaking skills are tested. The Table Topics Master presents a series of short, unprepared speaking challenges or questions, and members or guests are invited to come to the podium and give a brief, improvised response.
**Evaluations:** Following the prepared speeches and Table Topics
segment, evaluators provide constructive feedback to speakers. These evaluations focus on content, delivery, body language, and time management. The goal is to help speakers improve their speaking skills.
**Reports and Functionary Roles:** The meeting may include various functionary roles, such as the Timer, Grammarian, Ah-Counter, and others, who report on their observations and contributions to the session. These roles help members improve their language and time management skills.
**General Evaluator:** The General Evaluator provides an overall assessment of the meeting, highlighting what went well and offering suggestions for improvement. They may also evaluate the evaluators' performance.
**Awards and Recognitions:** Toastmasters sessions often conclude with awards and recognitions, including the Best Speaker, Best Evaluator, and Best Table Topics Speaker. These awards encourage members to strive for excellence in their speaking and leadership abilities.
**Closing:** The meeting concludes with closing remarks from the Toastmaster of the Day, who may express gratitude to participants and encourage them to continue their Toastmasters journey.

*Pepijn Schoen*
**From ClickOps to Scalable Platform**
For engineers and engineering leaders, on culture and decision making.
Abstract
We ran everything in one Azure subscription. Leads and sales, installations and steering energy systems. Everyone had access. Most resources were created manually. It was unclear who owned what.
As the tech org grew from 100 to 300 people, reinventing security and scaling individually stopped working.
We'll cover how we approached platform building as gardeners rather than architects: observing what already works, replicating it, and letting rituals emerge before encoding them. We'll look at some mistakes we made along the way and what we learned from each.
*Dayana Mick*
**It works… but no one understands it: The hidden problem in DevOps**
For several years, I kept asking the same question to senior developers, staff engineers, and mentors: “What is a build?” I rarely got a clear answer. Not because people didn’t know, but because the mental model had faded somewhere between Terraform, Ansible, Kubernetes, and “just run this command.”
At some point, I realized I could run pipelines, deploy services, and fix things just enough to move forward, but explaining what was actually happening was much harder. And I was not the only one.
This talk is about a pattern I’ve seen across every company I’ve worked at. Systems that work, but are not really understood. Teams running platform commands from memory. Platform teams becoming bottlenecks. Incidents where even experienced engineers hesitate. And situations where people rely on tools without a clear sense of what is actually happening underneath. With AI, this is only accelerating.
This is a talk for anyone who has ever copy-pasted a command, watched it work, and decided not to ask further questions. It is especially relevant for junior and mid-level engineers navigating DevOps complexity, and for teams who are trying to scale tooling without losing shared understanding.
AI in the Wild: From Engineering Reality to the Future of Work
Are you a software engineer, product owner, or HR professional navigating the shift toward an AI-driven world? Join us for an in-person meetup in Berlin, where we bridge the gap between high-stakes AI implementation and the rapidly evolving European labor market.
🙌 Special thanks to our host, Blue Card Agency, for supporting the community and providing the venue for this event!
🔔 Agenda
🔹 Welcome & Intro A brief opening by our hosts from Blue Card Agency.
🔹 Talk 1: "Beyond the LLM Hype: Process Discovery is the Real Bottleneck"
Speaker: Patrick Bunk, Co-Founder & Lead Architect
Automating 120k PDF forms a year in a regulated manufacturing environment isn't just about "reading text" — it's about surviving the messy reality of human logic. In this talk, we’ll dive into a real production case where the biggest challenge wasn't the model, but the "uncomfortable truth": rules live in people’s heads, exceptions conflict, and "correct" is negotiable until you write it down.
🔹 Talk 2: "The Present and Future of the Labor Market with AI"
Speaker: Milana Alenina, HR Partner
How is AI actually changing the way companies hire and value work? We’ll explore the structural shifts happening right now in the European market, from the need for candidates to be "machine-readable" to how organizations are redesigning themselves to fit the new reality.
⚡️ What’s in it for you?
We’re skipping the surface-level AI hype to talk about what’s actually happening in the trenches. Come for the real-world war stories of automating regulated workflows, stay for a brutally honest look at how AI is rewriting the rules of recruitment and organizational value in Europe. It's a chance to cut through the "vibes" and see the actual mechanics of the shift — followed by drinks and networking with fellow builders and strategists.
📌 Attendance is free, but spots are limited — register now to save yours!

**Everyone is racing to build with AI. But who is building it responsibly?**
There's a gold rush happening in tech right now and almost everyone is caught up in the excitement. AI features are being shipped at a rapid speed, products are being "enhanced" with machine intelligence overnight, and the pressure to move fast has never been higher.
But in the rush to innovate, some critical questions are getting buried: *Who's accountable when AI gets it wrong? How much should we hand over to automation and what do we silently lose when we do? And what are the risks we're not even seeing yet?*
These aren't hypothetical concerns. They're live, urgent, and sitting inside the products we're building right now.
**It's time to have the conversation that some teams are avoiding.**
UXDX Berlin is back! Join us at the GetYourGuide office in Prenzlauer Berg, where we will tackle the theme that every designer, researcher, and engineer needs to reckon with:
**"Designing Responsible AI: Trust, Autonomy & Hidden Risk"**
**Why This Event Matters**
The tools are powerful. The timelines are short. The consequences for users, for society, for trust in technology are long. If you're building products with AI, this isn't an optional conversation. It's the one you need to be in the room for.
**Come ready to think. Come ready to question. Come ready to build better.**
Thank you [GetYourGuide](https://www.getyourguide.com/) for supporting the event!

Maintainable Frontends for Symfony & Why every CMS needs MCP
Hello fellow Symfonians,
we are thrilled to announce the next user group meeting of the year, featuring two insightful talks that you **won't want to miss**!
This time we are hosted by c-base (Rungestrasse 20
10179 Berlin).
Come by and enjoy an evening of learning, networking, and socializing with fellow Symfony and PHP developers.
**Agenda:**
18:30: Doors open
19:00: Welcome and Introduction
19:20: **Talk 1: "Maintainable Frontends for Symfony" by Daniela Berger**
19:50: Break & Snack
20:00: **Talk 2: "Why every CMS needs MCP" by Roland Golla**
20:40: Socializing
**Talk Details:**
**Talk 1: "Maintainable Frontends for Symfony" by Daniela Berger**
In many web projects we find more backend devs than frontend devs, sometimes significantly so.
This often leads to devs with little frontend experience being asked to do frontend development anyway, and they often end up shaping their frontends in ways that will make their lives unnecessarily hard.
One common result are frontends that are functionally unmaintainable because each change - whether it is a new feature or a bugfix - requires implementing an exception to existing code, thus making the code increasingly and unnecessarily complex.
This is especially upsetting because with a bit of experience it is possible to implement light-weight frontend components with equally elegant CSS and JavaScript that are easy to extend and to adapt to new requirements without digging oneself into a deeper hole with each PR.
And since Symfony is making frontend development steadily more accessible to backend devs with Symfony US / Stimulus, this is a good time to take a closer look at \*how\* to structure these frontends.
This talk aims to a) introduce core frontend concepts that backend devs might not be aware of, b) show best frontend practices both on the code level and on the architecture level, c) show a few common mistakes that can be found in inexpertly implemented frontends, and c) introduce tools that will make consistent frontend development easier.
**Talk 2: "Why every CMS needs MCP" by Roland Golla**
Your content team already works in ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. Yet the content still lands in the CMS backend manually, clumsily, slowly. MCP changes that. One sentence in chat becomes a published article. No copy pasting, no formatting, no clicking.
And the content ranks. On Google, on ChatGPT, on Perplexity, on whatever comes next. Good content written by AI directly into the CMS goes live faster and gets found.
I show you the MCP plugin for Sulu CMS: open source, built on Symfony, ready to deploy. But this is not about implementation. It is about the three questions every content team must ask: Why does every website need MCP? What does good AI content look like? And why is conversational content management better than anything you click together in a backend?
MCP makes content creation as easy as chat. If you can write, you can publish. No CMS training, no workflow, no waiting.
Live on stage: a complete workflow from idea in chat to published article in Sulu CMS. Everything open source on GitHub.
Don't miss these insightful talks, engaging discussions, and networking opportunities. We can't wait to see you at the **April Symfony User Group**!"
If you have any questions or accessibility requirements, please reach out to us. Also, if your company wants to be the next host for the User Group, just let us know!

**🎙️**Speaker: Marcel Drechsler, User Group Leader & Product Owner Internal Developer Platform @ **[andsafe](https://andsafe.de)**
In the rapidly changing landscape of Platform Engineering, Datadog has evolved from a monitoring tool into a comprehensive foundation for Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs). This session explores the journey of scaling observability and security into a unified platform strategy that reduces developer friction. We will dive into how Datadog’s expanding ecosystem provides the essential building blocks for modern self-service infrastructure. Attendees will learn how to leverage these integrated features to build a more resilient and transparent developer experience. Discover how to transform your Datadog instance into a strategic asset for your platform’s success.
**📅 19:15 - Logs as a First-Class Citizen - How Lightspeed Commerce evolved logs to unlock the full power of Datadog**
**(30 min.)**
**🎙️**Speaker: Rein Martha, Staff Software Engineer, Lightspeed Commerce
When Lightspeed started with Datadog, we didn't begin with traces or metrics — we began with evolving our logs. Raw, unstructured, and full of noise. The first step was making them worth keeping: trimming duplicates, removing what no one ever read, and transforming what remained into structured, queryable signals.
That foundation changed everything. Once logs became first-class — with clean attributes, consistent structure, and a clear purpose for every line — the rest of the observability stack followed naturally. Monitors built on log queries. Dashboards that actually meant something on incidents. Metrics generated directly from log attributes, giving us long-term retention without the cost of keeping everything raw.
**📅 19:45 - Best Practices for Alerting with Datadog (30 min.)**
**🎙️**Speaker: Santiago Gomez Saez, Datadog ambassador & Principal Cloud Architect @ **[dxone](https://www.dx.one.gmbh/)**
Operational excellence is the main objective of SRE teams. Focusing on alerting, this talk shares common pitfalls and best practices on how and when to alert when incidents occur. In addition, we show how to self-heal in some cases requiring no manual intervention.
**🥗 20:15 - Drinks, Food & Networking**
Enjoy refreshments while networking with community peers!

Berlin. Confidence on Stage - Presentation Karaoke
**Important! Please register on [Luma Page](https://luma.com/8d2zd6a6)**
🎤 **Calling everyone who wants to get better at presenting, thinking on the spot, and communicating ideas clearly.**
Most of us have prepared presentations.
But real life doesn’t always give you that luxury.
Being able to **structure your thoughts quickly, explain ideas clearly, and stay confident in unpredictable situations** is a different skill.
At this session, we’ll practice exactly that — in a format that’s structured, practical, and a bit chaotic (in the best way).
If you want to get more comfortable presenting without overthinking, this event is for you.
##
**We’ll work on:**
* how to structure ideas clearly and quickly
* how to present without a script
* how to stay confident when you don’t fully know what’s coming
* how to communicate in a way people actually follow
**What to expect**
We’ll start with a **simple, practical framework** for building clear and engaging presentations.
Then we’ll break into smaller groups to **think, discuss, and prepare ideas together**.
And then — **presentation karaoke**.
You’ll get slides you’ve never seen before and present them on the spot.
No preparation, no perfect script — just real-time thinking and communication.
**Agenda**
18:00-18:30 — Arrivals & introduction
18:30-19:15 — Workshop & group work
19:15-20:30 — Presentation karaoke
20:30-21:00 — Networking
**Who is this event for?**
Anyone who wants to:
* get better at presenting ideas
* feel more confident speaking in front of others
* practice thinking and communicating under pressure

American Sign Language Beginners Meetup Group
We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able!
Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!
The Story So Far: A WiA Reflection Circle
A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange
At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter.
This is the follow-up.
Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered — and honestly explore what’s actually happening now.
Together, we’ll explore:
• What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in
• What’s surprised you, supported you, or shifted
• What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know
If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote — your word, your artifact, your intention. We’ll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. You’ll start where we all started: with what’s true right now.
Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, you’re warmly invited to bring it back.
The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter.
Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate.
What to Expect
• A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup)
• Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak
• Reflection, listening, and lived experience — not advice-giving
• Optional creative reflection alongside conversation
• A calm, supportive environment
Who This Is For
Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change — especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords.
Good to Know
• No preparation required
• If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - it’s optional but invited
• Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome
• Creative activities are optional
Agile Coaching Circle -- IN-PERSON
Join other experienced and aspiring agile coaches and professionals to:
* develop and practice your coaching skills in a peer-to-peer environment
* share current successes and challenges in your work environment and get support from each other
* learn from each other, build better relationships and experiment with new ideas
***NOTE:*** Pre-registration is required for this event. **Please arrive 10 minutes early** to check in at the security desk.
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.
