Join us for “Platform Engineering × AI: From Refactoring to Reliability,” an evening exploring how AI agents, deterministic codemods, and supervised automation are reshaping large-scale engineering workflows. Hear real-world stories of shrinking multi-year migrations into months, transforming fragile legacy code into evergreen systems, and saving hundreds of developer hours with AI-powered codemods. A meetup for engineers who want to move beyond writing code—into orchestrating intelligent systems that write and improve it. ***Agenda*** 18:00 - Gathering, food, drinks & mingling 18:30 - **From 8 Years to 6 Months: Orchestrating AI agents for Large-Scale Refactoring** \- Alon Segal & Amit Hanoch\, monday\.com 19:00 - **Saving 1000+ developer hours with codemods -** Elad Bezalel, Lemonade 19:30 - **From Legacy to Evergreen: Supervising AI Agents for Confident Coding** \- Yonatan Kra\, Vonage **Talk Abstracts** **From 8 Years to 6 Months: Orchestrating AI agents for Large-Scale Refactoring** Refactoring a massive legacy monolith is every developer’s nightmare—especially when estimates hit 8 person-years. At monday.com, attempts to rely solely on Generative AI introduced hallucinations and drift, pushing us to rethink automation entirely. In this talk, we’ll show how we cut the migration timeline to just 6 months by building a custom orchestration engine combining agentic coding with deterministic codemods (AST). You’ll see our “Research-Execute-Review” workflow in action, where a Node.js orchestrator manages autonomous agents that validate their own code through custom validators, linters, and tests before a human ever reviews a PR. We’ll share the governance patterns, oversight strategies, and orchestration framework that enabled us to eliminate years of technical debt in months—while maintaining full stability and zero production incidents. **Saving 1000+ developer hours with codemods** Moving from one major version to another in various repositories is a tough task that might take precious hours of your time. To put it delicately, I hate manual work. Facing the excruciating process ahead of me, I decided to build a tool to help me in migrating huge amounts of code from one version to another. In this session I will share the reasoning for this project, the technicalities behind it, how to use AI to generate migrations, and how to use this tool for your own benefit. **From Legacy to Evergreen: Supervising AI Agents for Confident Coding** Are you spending much of your time wrestling with untested, fragile legacy code? AI agents promise an easy escape by instantly generating and refactoring code. They even seem to offer test coverage. Yet using them unchecked results in low-quality "legacy code" that is just as painful to maintain as, well, legacy code. In this talk we will talk through a "Small Step" methodology for effectively partnering with your AI agent: we'll break down complex modules into manageable chunks, guiding the agent with precise prompts to focus on the public interface and business logic, not implementation details and even a way to automatically make sure no regressions were made during a change. You will walk away with a proven, practical framework for supervising AI-driven Coding. It will allow you to confidently transform old, undocumented systems into evergreen code with a robust test suite that prevents regressions, accelerates refactoring, and dramatically boosts development velocity. **Speaker Bios** **Alon Segal - Frontend Engineering Team Lead, [monday.com](http://monday.com)** Alon is a Frontend Engineering Team Lead at monday.com, where he leads a team in the Client Foundations group and focuses on the core systems that power the company’s web platform.

Date: 2026.01.07 Start: 18:00 \* **Mingling** (30 minutes) \* **Rust is the future of Linux drivers** by [Leon Vak](https://rust.org.il/people/leon-vak) Language: (Hebrew) Length: 60 min I gave a talk about Rust in the Linux kernel back in 2024. Back then, it was mostly an experiment and honestly, there was a lot of debate around it. Even though I was excited, for my daily work—writing DMA and PCIe drivers for our customers—I still stuck with C. The situation felt shaky: one day Linus would say something positive, and the next day a lead maintainer would quit because of the "non-technical nonsense." But while the headlines were messy, the developers kept working quietly and closing the gaps. Fast forward to today, the "experiment" tag is officially gone. With the new Nova driver for NVIDIA and subsystems like Binder already running in Rust on millions of devices, it is no longer a question of "if," but "when." I decided it’s the right time to take a deep dive into what we have today and see if we are finally ready to move our daily driver work from C to Rust.

As AI engineering moves from experiments to production, the challenge is no longer just “using an LLM” - it’s architecting real systems around agents, context, and control. In this meetup, we’ll explore how companies build reliable multi-agent flows, refactor early hacks into scalable architectures, and get AI coding agents to produce real, shippable work. We’re bringing together experts from HoneyBook, DoorLoop, and Unity to share how they design agent architectures, evolve prototypes into robust systems, and turn coding agents into productive teammates. Join us for an evening where AI engineering gets practical, hands-on, and deeply real. —---- **Agenda:** 17:30 - 18:30 - Food, drinks and mingling 18:30 - Onboarding Zen: Orchestrating Multi-Agent Flows into One Whole Experience - Idan Doron, Senior Full Stack Engineer at HoneyBook 19:00 - Refactoring the Agent: From Hardcoded Logic to Unified LangGraph & MCPs - Maor Oz, Technical Lead at DoorLoop 19:30 - AI Coding Agents: From Vibes to Production - Nir Jacob, Senior Full Stack Engineer at Unity 20:00 - More drinks and mingling! The talks will be delivered in Hebrew. —---- **// Onboarding Zen: Orchestrating Multi-Agent Flows into One Whole Experience - Idan Doron, Senior Full Stack Engineer at HoneyBook** Forcing an LLM to behave the way you intend is a never-ending challenge, and we faced this challenge in our onboarding experience. At HoneyBook, our onboarding experience uses multiple AI agents - contracts, invoices, pipeline, and an onboarding specialist - each tied to a unique UI mode. That worked well until we realized real users don’t stick to a single intent, and they move from one context to another while staying with the same agent and the same UI experience. In this talk, we’ll explore how we built a multi-agent orchestrator that keeps onboarding seamless and context-aware. We’ll share how we designed intent routing, used “think tools” that guide reasoning without extra LLM calls, created safe fallback paths, and balanced model decisions with deterministic logic. ***About the speaker:*** Idan is a Senior Full Stack Engineer at HoneyBook, driving AI initiatives from product development to company-wide task forces. One of the first to introduce AI at HoneyBook, she now focuses on agentic AI engineering. In her free time, you can find her doing functional training or baking (though not at the same time). [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/idandoron/) **// Refactoring the Agent: From Hardcoded Logic to Unified LangGraph & MCPs - Maor Oz, Technical Lead at DoorLoop** How do you evolve from a fragile, hardcoded script into a scalable agent architecture? At DoorLoop, we began with almost no AI context, stitching together limited workflows without tools. It quickly became clear that this approach could not scale. In this session, we will explore the real engineering journey of building an AI platform, tracing the evolution from early RAG experiments to fully stateful, production-grade agents. We’ll cover the steep learning curve of adopting LangChain, the early limitations of tool-less and prompt-only workflows, and the pivotal shift to the ReAct paradigm. Finally, we’ll look ahead to the future of agent scalability, focusing on how the Model Context Protocol (MCP) enables clean, standardized connections between agents and internal tools, unlocking a more modular, extensible, and maintainable AI architecture. ***About the speaker:*** Maor Oz is an AI Technical Lead at DoorLoop. Over the past two years, Maor was a Technical Lead focused on strengthening the company’s infrastructure and developer experience. Six months ago, he transitioned into an AI Technical Lead role, where he now leads DoorLoop’s initiative to introduce and scale multiple AI agents across the company. In his free time, you can find Maor playing various instruments, creating music and playing video games. [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/maor-oz-a02129100/) **// AI Coding Agents: From Vibes to Production - Nir Jacob, Senior Full Stack Engineer at Unity** If you’ve ever found yourself in a never-ending debate with an AI where “You Are Absolutely Right!” you know the unique frustration of working with LLMs that sound certain but act chaotic. This talk digs into what’s really happening under the hood when AI tries to help you write code and why things so often go sideways. We’ll walk through real cases where good prompts went bad, bad context ballooned into messy diffs, and where the AI’s confidence outpaced its correctness. More importantly, we’ll explore practical methods to fix this with advanced context-engineering techniques, task delegation across specialized sub-agents, and patterns that dramatically reduce hallucinations and missteps. You’ll learn how to structure conversations, break down problems, and guide coding agents so they become dependable collaborators instead of unpredictable debaters. This session will show you how to turn your AI slop into vibes and finally get AI to help you write better code, faster. ***About the speaker:*** Nir Jacob is a Senior Full Stack Engineer at Unity. He has spent the past year leading the adoption of AI-powered coding tools across R&D. With deep experience in building high-quality software and a curiosity-driven mindset, he loves exploring emerging technologies, experimenting with new developer tools, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible. Outside of work, you’ll often find him tinkering with the latest AI assistants or testing whatever new tech lands on his desk. [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/nirjacob/) —---- See you soon!

\#\# Full Agenda From: Rotem Gani \| Chen Amrani \| Efi Merdler Kravitz : \[Hebrew\] **Seize the automation - Turning a One-Off Fix into Org-Wide Automation** ​Every engineering team has that moment: a repetitive, error-prone change that needs to be applied across dozens of repositories. Everyone knows it should be automated — but somehow it never is. ​ This talk tells the real story of how one such "annoying but necessary" fix evolved into a fully-fledged AI-powered automation platform used across an organization. From: Ron Klein [Hebrew] **Use Caching and Hashing to avoid Crashing** ​Sure, your framework has a cache. Your CDN has one too. But do you really know what they’re doing? ​In this session, we’ll build a tiny in-memory cache on purpose - so we can break it, fix it, and understand what real caching systems are actually solving. We’ll explore common failure modes like stale data, race conditions, invalidation pain, and the dreaded thundering herd, then level up with ETags and conditional HTTP requests. ​You’ll leave with a clearer intuition for how caching really works - and how to use it to make your backend faster, calmer, and more resilient.

# **Band: The Pegheads; Caller: Liz Burkhart** Beginner lesson at 1:30, regular dancing begins at 2:00 pm NOTE THAT WE ARE TEMPORARILY DANCING IN THE AFTERNOON INSTEAD OF EVENING. Dance with us in the afternoon then you can still go out in the evening! **Sponsor: All Soles Contra and Square Dancing, First Unitarian Universalist Church, 93 W. Weisheimer Rd., Columbus OH 43214** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 1:30 - 2:00, followed by dancing 2:00 - 430. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. Please bring your own refillable water bottle.

**Karaoke Night**: Bring your glee club friends. Enjoy a flashback to your choir days. No chorus line. It's all you baby. Sing. Shout. Scream. Lip sync if you need to.
