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)**

**About the show** Get ready to laugh until your stomach hurts with Carmen Chraim in her hilarious solo show - CARM ALARM! **[Link for tickets](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/carm-alarm-carmen-chraim-solo-show-tickets-1980651775779?aff=oddtdtcreator)** You have seen her shouting at protests, screaming “I love you!” at Saint Levant and Sean Paul concerts. Now it’s time to watch her on stage. Unapologetic, unfiltered, and loud enough to get a noise complaint. From Lebanon, Carmen has been described as Berlin’s underground secret with no password. Being a comedian for 10 years, means she’s either dedicated, stubborn, or just completely delulu, most likely all three. After years of shows now saved carefully in her “out of storage” cloud, Carmen has finally worked really hard (well, kind of hard) on this new hour to make it as personal, fun and authentic as possible. She’s strangely attached to it, despite her allergy to hugs, and she wants loads of people to see it. Expect an hour of sharp punchlines about politics, dating disasters, Berlin weirdness, work nonsense, and what it’s like to be a petite Arab woman surviving (and thriving) in today’s world. Do yourself a favour and take a deep dive into Carmen’s brain, it’ll help you realise how well your life is going. Doors open at 20h00 Show starts at 20h30 1hour long **About Carmen:** Born and raised in Lebanon, Carmen brings high energy, quick stories, and a love for sarcasm to every stage. With over 10 years of comedy experience, she’s performed all over Europe, produced hit shows in Berlin, and opened for comedians like Todd Barry, Judah Friedlander, and Andy Haynes. Now part of the Queen Bees Comedy collective, Carmen’s bold humor and unique voice will keep you laughing all night. Want to know where she’s performing next? Just follow her on Instagram @carmenita01

**Einladung zur Flowgame-Session** In einer Zeit, die für viele von uns unsicher und herausfordernd ist, tragen wir alle auf die eine oder andere Weise Ängste in uns. In dieser Flowgame-Session möchte ich einen Raum öffnen, in dem wir uns diesen Ängsten gemeinsam zuwenden können – im Gespräch, im Austausch und getragen vom Flowgame als Struktur und Halt. Mehr zum FlowGame hier: www.flowgame.net Es geht darum, miteinander ins Gespräch zu kommen: über das, was uns bewegt, was uns Sorgen macht und was uns vielleicht auch Mut gibt. Indem wir unsere Erfahrungen teilen, können wir uns gegenseitig unterstützen und möglicherweise neue Perspektiven und Zuversicht für die Zukunft finden. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei vor allem der ehrliche Austausch über Ängste – weil sie zu uns gehören und gehört werden wollen. Ich freue mich auf eine achtsame, offene Runde mit euch.

**Uncertain Times, Adaptive Teams** What’s the next evolution of Agile? Agile turns **25 years old in 2026**. A quarter of a century after a small group of practitioners met in the late 90s to rethink how teams could work better, we once again find ourselves in a moment of profound change. AI is reshaping roles. Organizations expect clarity and measurable impact. Teams are navigating increasing complexity and shifting expectations. In many ways, it feels similar to the period just before the Agile Manifesto emerged – a time when people sensed that a new way of working was about to take shape. So the question becomes: **What could the next evolution of Agile look like?** Let’s explore it together. **What to expect** Join us for an interactive Meetup that combines a short impulse with a collaborative **World Café**. Together, we will explore several potential future scenarios of Agile and reflect on the signals, patterns, and tensions we already see in our own environments. 🧩 **World Café Session** Move through different tables, each focused on a possible future of Agile — from AI‑supported teamwork to post‑framework agility. 💡 **Fresh Insights** Exchange experiences, challenges, observations, and emerging trends from your daily work. 🤝 **Co‑Creation Instead of Keynote** This isn’t about presenting the “one right answer.” It’s about thinking together and shaping new perspectives. **Who is this for?** Anyone working with or around agility: Product Owners, Agile Coaches, Scrum Masters, leaders, transformation practitioners — or anyone curious about what might come next. **Why join?** Because 25 years after the Agile Manifesto, we may once again be standing at a moment where something new is beginning to emerge. And in this Meetup, **you can be part of that exploration.** 📅 **Date:** 19.02.2026 ⏰ **Time:** 6:15 PM 📍 **Location:** Deloitte Greenhouse, Kurfürstendamm 23, 10719 Berlin > Ground Floor > 6+7 🎤 **Hosts:** Alexander Ständert, Deloitte Consulting GmbH, Deloitte Agile Community Seats are limited. Please register through the official Deloitte event page: 👉[Deloitte | Register ](https://cloud.marketing.deloitte.de/eventRegistration?eventname=Agile%20Meetup%20Feb%2026&locale=en) We look forward to shaping the next chapter of Agile with you! #Agile #FutureOfAgile #WorldCafe #AI #Adaptiveness #25YearsAgile #Meetup

We will meet next to the restrooms at the [Big Meadows Picnic Area](https://www.metroparks.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/HBK_Web_1980.png). They're all the way at the back of the park, and they can be found at coordinates [40°09'06.6"N 83°02'30.2"W](https://www.google.com/maps/place/40%C2%B009'06.6%22N+83%C2%B002'30.2%22W/@40.151828,-83.0423587,214m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m10!1m5!3m4!2zNDDCsDA5JzA4LjAiTiA4M8KwMDEnNDUuMSJX!8m2!3d40.1522222!4d-83.0291944!3m3!8m2!3d40.151827!4d-83.041715?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MTIwNC4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D) (near the playground and the zip line). We'll hike about 5 miles at [Highbanks Metro Park](https://www.metroparks.net/parks-and-trails/highbanks/) on the Dripping Rock and Overlook Trails. Afterward, we'll head over to [Olentangy River Brewing](https://www.olentangybrew.com/) for drinks, coffee, or food (their Sunday [food truck](https://www.olentangybrew.com/eventsandfood) is Venezuelan and always gets good reviews). The actual address of the brewery is [303 Green Meadows Dr S, 43035](https://www.google.com/maps/place/303+Green+Meadows+Dr+S,+Lewis+Center,+OH+43035/@40.1551938,-83.0144045,17.25z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x8838f395cef06c97:0xe407de61b3e30069!8m2!3d40.1551765!4d-83.0124352!16s%2Fg%2F11c26jc7j9?entry=ttu). If you can't make the hike, we should be there by noon. **How to find our starting point in Big Meadows:** If you are new to Highbanks, the Big Meadows picnic area is 1.5 miles into the park just after you turn into the park off of U.S. Route 23. That is, after you enter the park, drive a mile and a half into the park. You will come to a crosswalk with a yield sign in the middle of it (this is not to be confused with the first such crosswalk you come to just in front of the Nature Center, which you arrive at maybe a quarter of a mile into the park). Just after this second crosswalk, make a left. Then make another almost immediate left into the parking lot on your left. There you will see the jungle gym and the kiddie zip line to your left. I will be just in front of the restrooms just a bit further down from the jungle gym and picnic shelter; the restroom building will also be on your left.

Meeting @ Improving's office in Downtown Columbus, near Cosi. Parking is paid, food & drink are free! This time we're hanging out after the long winter break. We are going to look at a group-member's project used to help learn the fundamentals of Go, and if time allows, we can take a look at how we like to build Go projects using AI.

**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 **Abstract** TBD **YouTube Link** TBA
