__________________________________________________
Join us on February 17 as **Superhuman’s Data Engineering team** shares examples of **how they scaled from a writing assistant to an agent platform**, unified analytics and ML data, and migrated core systems without slowing product delivery.
✅ **Registration**: Closed
🚀 **Enabling Rapid Experimentation: Unifying Analytics and ML Data in Databricks**
Enabling teams to rapidly experiment with new AI models requires breaking down silos between analytical data and ML training datasets. At Superhuman, we consolidated both into Databricks as we scaled from a writing assistant to an agent platform. In this talk, we will:
* Share our journey from our fragmented data systems to a unified platform in Databricks
* Walk through design choices on how we organize Workspaces, Unity Catalog, and data ingestion
* Explain how we apply and manage our privacy policies, governance, and access control
🚀 **Rebuilding the Engine: Migrating Data Systems While Keeping Products Moving**
During this talk, we'll explore how to migrate core data systems while maintaining product velocity amid organizational and architectural change.
We’ll cover:
* The migration philosophy behind translate vs. transplant, and when each approach makes sense
* Key data validation challenges encountered during system migrations
* How to scope migration efforts realistically under time and delivery pressure
* Architectural trade-offs and lessons learned from high-impact decisions

GenAI transforming Engineering: Agents and Guardrails [IN-PERSON!]
Meet us for in-person talks at Zalando on February 17, 2026!
Join us for an evening of practical talks on how GenAI is reshaping modern engineering workflows, from code agents to production-grade, guardrailed systems.
Please make sure you register with your full name, as it will be checked by security on arrival.
**📅Date and Time:**
Tuesday, February 17, 2026
Doors open: 18:00
Opening & announcements: 18:30
Talks start: 18:35
Wrap-up & networking: \~20:30
📍**Location:** [Zalando Office BHW](https://maps.app.goo.gl/GELYd8FH7AnqEFNF8)
Berlin Hedwig-Wachenheimstraße 7 (BHW)
The main entrance is on the west-side of the building (towards Uber Arena). Participants should register at the Helpdesk, and will be picked up from there.
📝 **Agenda:**
**18:00 – Doors Open** Pizza, drinks, and networking
**18:30 – Opening** Short welcome and announcements from the organizers (5 min)
### **18:35 – Talk #1**
**Building Blocks of Modern Code Agents: Reusable Skills and Role-Based Subagents**
**[Alexey Grigorev](https://www.linkedin.com/in/agrigorev) — DataTalk.Club**
A practical map of modern code agent types and the two key building blocks that make them reliable in real-world development workflows.
Code agents appear in many forms today: chat-based assistants, cloud agents running CI-like workflows, and IDE or terminal agents embedded directly into development environments. In this talk, we’ll map these main categories, discuss what each is good at, and highlight where they commonly fail.
We’ll then zoom in on two core building blocks used in modern agent tooling:
* **Skills / playbooks** — reusable, step-by-step workflows (e.g. understand the repo → implement a change → run checks → produce a clean diff)
* **Subagents** — specialized roles such as planner, implementer, reviewer, and tester that split complex work into focused, reliable steps
**Format:** 20 min talk + 10 min Q&A
### **19:05 – Talk #2**
**Guardrailed Agents at Scale: Zalando’s Support Agent for Incident Triage and Stakeholder Q&A**
**[Ivan Potapov](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ivan-sur/)**, **[Saugandh Karan](https://www.linkedin.com/in/saugandh-karan/)**[ ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/saugandh-karan/)— Zalando SE
We’ll share how Zalando built and shipped a specialized internal support agent that helps engineering teams answer stakeholder questions and triage operational alerts — without drowning in context or compromising production safety.
The agent enriches user requests with relevant observability context (metrics, logs, traces, recent deploys), summarizes what matters, and produces a severity assessment with recommended next steps.
A key challenge is context explosion: pulling “all the data” quickly becomes noisy, slow, and risky. We’ll walk through the architecture patterns and guardrails that keep the system production-ready:
* Retrieval and ranking strategies
* Strict tool boundaries
* Policy-driven response formats
* Evaluation checks to prevent overconfident or unsafe guidance
Finally, we’ll cover rollout and migration: introducing the agent alongside existing workflows, aligning it with architecture guidelines, and iterating based on real incident feedback.
**Format:** 20 min talk + 10 min Q&A
### **19:35 – Pizza, Drinks & Networking**
Invite your friends and join our meetup. Special thanks to our hosts **[Zalando.](https://en.zalando.de/?_rfl=de)**

Tech talks at Mozilla
Save the date! The Mozilla Meetup series continues with talks focused on modern web technologies.
To account for typical **no-show rates**, we’ve opened more RSVP spots than we can physically accommodate. Based on our last event, only about 36 of 100 registered participants (including Mozillians) attended in person. **We will admit attendees on a first-come, first-served basis and will need to close the doors once we reach room capacity (around 50 people).**
Note that this event operates under the [Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines](https://www.mozilla.org/about/governance/policies/participation/).
**18:00** \- Doors open
**18:30** \- Tracking \(Protection\) Everywhere
There are a variety of tracking vectors on the web. But how exactly does this tracking work and what mechanism do we have available to protect our privacy?
This talk takes a closer look at the many anti-tracking mechanisms Firefox uses to protect its users, and discusses the threat models behind them and the practical protection they provide.
Bio: Manuel Bucher is a software engineer on the Firefox Privacy team working on anti-tracking in Firefox
**19:30:** No Servers, No APIs: AI in the Browser
I’ll present how modern web technologies make it possible to run AI models directly in the browser combining WebLLM and WebAssembly to deliver powerful, privacy-preserving client-side AI experiences. For more context, here’s a related article I wrote for Mozilla AI: [https://blog.mozilla.ai/3w-for-in-browser-ai-webllm-wasm-webworkers/](https://blog.mozilla.ai/3w-for-in-browser-ai-webllm-wasm-webworkers/)
**Bio:** Barış Güler is an engineering leader working on in-browser AI systems that leverage WebLLM, WASM, and web platform features to bring AI inference and tooling into client environments. He writes about web-native AI and open-source approaches to privacy-first machine intelligence (and a Rust fan, for sure).
