Leadership Development

**Trying AI tools is easy. Making them actually useful inside a company is where things get complicated. This Crew Talk focuses on the stage where AI stops being an experiment and moves into real-world use: with real data, real users, and real business limits.** Join us on **Tuesday, February 24**, for an evening focused on how AI works in practice, not just in theory. Five speakers from data science, engineering, education, and business roles will share their experience with building AI systems, training people to use them, and turning AI into something that truly works in real organizations.

Reproducible dependency management in C++ without sacrificing development velocity by [Alex Vilchanski](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-vilchanski-5a3083279/) Ever went back in your project in git history and painstakingly guessed, which versions of the five internally developed dependencies should you even check out to make it compile? Managing dependencies in C++ is still not trivial, especially if you want to build your product with both internal (company) and external dependencies and your goal is to enable fearless dependency management by the not-so-experienced team members. Oh, and you work in an industry that requires you to be able to make patches to old software in reasonable time. Or you just want to bisect that nasty bug, and oh, it's not a monorepo or a super-build project where one can just check out a single revision. Well, I may have something useful for you: a combination of CPM and Conan that should cover most of the teams' needs that usually arise when starting greenfield projects or ecosystems, which is currently the case for me at work. As you've probably heard, many problems are "people" problems, and therefore the presented ideas require fine-tuning and adjustment for your use-case. Since dependency management is an everlasting issue (especially in C++), I also hope to inspire some further discussion in the room and as it often happens, perhaps the audience can suggest further improvements. Timetable: 18:00 Get together, setup, socialize 18:30 talk starts ??:?? talk ends, more socializing For those who want to join online here is the **[ZOOM LINK](https://us06web.zoom.us/j/81817715159?pwd=7jw6FxmpB9PUcPKJSHaDEDvIuCxaIV.1)** While you wait why not join our **[DISCORD SERVER](https://discord.gg/EPMXNGuHXG)**

**Anotace přednášky:** Naše povídání „AI Fuckupy očima QA“ mapuje cestu od prvotního nadšení z no-code nástrojů a N8N až po tvrdý náraz do reality. Ukážeme vám, co se stane, když se manažerské sny o rychlých úsporách potkají s technickými limity. Zjistili jsme (často draze), že Data Science není Full Stack a že i takzvaný „Judge Agent“ si umí vymýšlet stejně kreativně jako každý jiný agent pracující s daty. Prošli jsme si peklem okolo ROI, bezpečnosti i AI Actu, abychom nakonec našli funkční systém. Ten dnes jasně odděluje testování AI produktů od používání AI jako pomocníka. Doražte. Ukážeme vám, proč AI nemá „God Mode“ a jak ji zapojit do procesu tak, aby vám reálně pomáhala, a ne jen vyráběla drahé problémy. **O speakerech:** **Blanka Fóglová** je QA architektka a konzultantka, která se dívá na testování a delivery proces jako na celek. Pomáhá týmům budovat efektivní QA strategie a automatizaci (včetně Playwrightu či AI QA) s důrazem na to, aby technologie sloužily lidem, ne naopak. Díky zkušenostem z dynamických startupů i velkých korporací dokáže pragmaticky zavádět principy DevOps i moderní metody jako contract testing. **Tadeáš Topol** je Automation QA konzultant a architekt se zaměřením na udržitelný vývoj testovacích frameworků a optimalizaci dodávání procesů. Specializuje se na budování komplexních řešení v nástrojích jako Playwright, Cypress či Robot Framework, které propojuje s reportingem (Grafana, OpenSearch) a výkonnostním testováním v K6. Tadeáš staví mosty mezi QA, vývojem a DevOps, klade také důraz na propojování moderních technologií (včetně AI) s reálnými potřebami byznysu, od dynamických startupů po komplexní korporátní prostředí. Těšíme se - organizátoři [Pro:]Test!

We’re excited to share that after a break, **Outreach meetups are back!** This time, we’re returning with a session focused on **engineering leadership**! This event is designed to inspire engineers and managers who want to unlock their full leadership potential without burning out along the way. Whether you’re considering a move into management, are new in the role, or already leading teams at scale, this meetup will offer **practical insights, real stories, and actionable takeaways** from experienced engineering leaders. *** ## Talks Schedule **17:30 – Doors open** **18:00 – Talk 1** **Christian Galatolo, Engineering Director @ Outreach** **How Senior Engineering Managers Scale Without Burning Out** Early in my management career, I unknowingly relied on principles to build a successful new business unit. Years later, with more experience and higher stakes, I learned which principles truly scale and which mistakes quietly turn managers into bottlenecks. This talk shares those lessons, grounded in real successes, real failures, and real pressure. **18:40 – Talk 2** **Michael Ruml, Director of Product Engineering @ Mews** **From Surviving to Scaling: Lessons from the First Year of Engineering Management** The transition from engineer to manager is one of the toughest shifts in tech. In this talk, Michael reflects on his first year as an Engineering Manager, unpacking the common traps, hard lessons, and mindset changes that make the difference between burnout and growth. A must-see for anyone navigating—or considering—the move into leadership. **19:30 – Networking** After the talks, stick around for networking, discussions, and getting to know fellow engineers and leaders. Outreach will provide **delicious snacks and drinks**, so you definitely won’t go hungry We’re really looking forward to seeing you there! \-\-\- *By taking part in this event, you grant the event organizers full rights to the use of images resulting from the photography/video filming, and any reproductions or adaptations of the images for fundraising, publicity, or other purposes.

In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification. You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written.
