**Hosted by Intercom’s Paul Vickers and Patrick Lindstrom** Join us at the Intercom Dublin office for an evening focused on the "Last Mile" of data engineering—turning solid infrastructure into immediate business value. Over the last two years, Intercom migrated to Snowflake and rebuilt our data foundations from the ground up, creating a trusted, high-quality layer of core data models. But we realized that great data is only useful if people can actually use it. In this session, the Intercom Data team will share how we are moving up the value chain—going beyond static dashboards to build intelligent, interactive tools that empower our GTM teams. **The Agenda:** **Breaking the SQL Barrier: Scaling Insights with Claude & Snowflake** Even with perfect data models, the "SQL Wall" often forces business leaders to wait in a queue for answers. We’ll demonstrate how we used Claude Code and Snowflake MCPs to remove this bottleneck, allowing non-technical users to query our Data Warehouse directly and create sharable artifacts of their analysis. See how we combined strict governance with an AI interface to turn "data tickets" into instant, self-serve answers. **From Insight to Action: Building 'Cockpit' on Snowflake Container Services** While chat enables exploration, some workflows require action. We will pull back the curtain on Cockpit, a full-stack application built by our Data Science team to help Relationship Managers optimize customer outcomes. Learn how we used AI-assisted coding ("vibe coding") to build the app and Snowpark Container Services to deploy it—proving that Data teams can build powerful software, not just reports. **From Idea to Real-Time Fraud Detection in Snowflake ML** In this session we’ll build a real-time fraud detection service end-to-end inside Snowflake. Starting from a natural language idea, we’ll use AI-assisted development to generate synthetic transaction data, explore patterns, and train an ML fraud model with Snowflake ML. We’ll then deploy it to Snowpark Container Services and expose a low-latency REST endpoint for live transaction scoring. You’ll leave with a practical pattern you can reuse for other real-time ML use cases such as credit risk scoring, real-time recommendations, or anomaly detection on operational data in Snowflake. **Location** Intercom office (near Stephens Green) **Event Schedule** * 6:00 PM: Networking with pizza and drinks * 6:30 PM: Breaking the SQL Barrier: Scaling Insights with Claude & Snowflake, Intercom * 7 pm From Insight to Action: Building 'Cockpit' on Snowflake Container Services, Intercom * 7.30 pm 10 minute break * 7.40 pm From Idea to Real-Time Fraud Detection in Snowflake ML, Max Zito, Snowflake * 8.10 pm Chats with drinks * From 9 pm More chats in a nearby pub

Most language exchanges are built around **movement**. —fast rotations, brief chats, surface-level conversation. New table. New person. Start again. It feels productive. It isn’t. Real conversations don’t happen in 10 minutes. They start there. Then they get interesting. At Flip Lingoes, **you stay.** Same table. Same group. Enough time for real conversation and real connection, beyond the surface level. Every 5 minutes, you switch roles: **fluent speaker ↔ learner**, not people. Before you arrive, **[create a profile here](https://www.fliplingoes.com/language-exchange-dublin/)**[,](https://www.fliplingoes.com/language-exchange-dublin/) tell us what language you're learning. This helps our **automated matching algorithm** put you in the right small group. No awkward searching. No guesswork. Simply scan the QR code on arrival and it automatically matches you with fluent speakers of your target language. We host events at Zanzibar Locke: calm, well-designed, easy to hear, easy to focus. *** **Event Flow** 6:45–7:15 → Seamless check-in (QR code, get matched, sit down) 7:15–8:30 → Language Exchange (structured, focused) 8:30 → Optional social + snacks included **Crispy chicken wings.

As part of Dublin Tech Week you are invited to a special edition of Dublin Dataviz! Instead of our usual speaker events, this evening will be a data visualisation workshop - a chance to get your hands dirty and get visualising some Irish data! No prior experience of any data visualisation software or coding is required. As places for this workshop are limited, we are charging a small fee of €5 to secure your spot - this will all be spent on pizzas on the night. Join us for what will be a great evening - with the inevitable pints in Arthur's bar afterwards.

## Details The title of the event is a paradox! Read in silence and then discuss with like-minded folks! :-) Since the weather is expected to be sunny, let's meet in the Stephen's green near Band Stand or James Joyce Statue facing MoLI, [https://maps.app.goo.gl/DX2AX2xYNTkU88Vq7?g_st=ic](https://maps.app.goo.gl/DX2AX2xYNTkU88Vq7?g_st=ic) at 7, do silent reading for an hour. Then head to Bartley's. If you're unable to find us, message me in the meetup. If you prefer indoors, you can ask Bartley's staff and read. We will join at 8:15 PM. 📝 **How does this work?** We will meet in the Bartley's Restaurant area from 7:00 PM to 8:15 PM for silent reading and followed up by discussion. **During silent reading, you're expected to remain silent and read.** Please bring your headphones and refrain from the discussion during the first one hour in the area. 👥 **Socialising** After an hour, at 8:15 PM, we'll discuss and socialize about the book you're reading. We highly encourage you to move between tables and strike up conversations with fellow book lovers. These discussions about literature and reading recommendations are often the highlight of the event! Feel free to join at any point during the event. The event is indoors, hopefully, we can continue the tradition of the silent reading in the winter! **📌 Helpful Tips and Notes** * Bring headphones to block out surrounding noise * I will post a comment on the event page when I arrive to indicate where we're seated, so everyone can find us * If you prefer to skip the silent reading, you can join directly at the bar at 8:15 PM ⚠️**Something Happened?** If something unpleasant happened to you, it may happen to others. It may be small but don't hesitate to reach out to me. Looking forward to meeting you all 😊

Hi all, lets meet at 12h to play Beach Volleyball in BullIsland, near the car park on the "Statue of Our Lady, Star Of The Sea" side of BullIsland. From Clontarf Rd cross over "The Wooden Bridge" and keep going on until the end, turn left when you see the beach car park and keep going to the left. We will set the nets beside the car park 😉 Please avoid to park at the beach because the car can get stuck on the sand. If you come by car park as soon as you find space and then walk. The idea is to have lunch at the beach and play beach volleyball. Please bring water, sun glasses (for the sand more than the sun) and sun cream (even when it's cloudy you can still get burned with the wind). I would love to create another lovely healthy group to have fun with and enjoy the weather whenever it's possible. All levels are welcome because the goal is to have fun and do some exercise. Any questions please contact me over the phone: 0876819433, or put a comment on this Meetup. Please bear in mind that on the same day of the event it'll be driving so give me a phone call if you are lost.

There are usually around 100 people at each event.

**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** Like it or not, AI agents are now capable of turning a quickly written paragraph of requirements into a pull request that is ready to be integrated into real-world production applications and it's now our responsibility to make sure AI doesn't go rogue and take down prod - or corrupt our data by misunderstanding the requirements or our existing schemas. In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** https://youtube.com/live/BltmWMH1zG0?feature=share
