Join us for an **advanced, hands-on session** focused on mastering best practices for development with Claude Code. We'll go beyond the basics to cover *planning, testing, and implementation, including deep dives into custom skills, subagents, hooks, context management, and maximising parallelisation using worktrees*. It's a walk-through of powerful agentic coding techniques on a live project, not slides about them. **What we'll cover** \- Claude Code configs\, plugins\, MCP\, and CLAUDE\.md \- The plan to review to implement workflow and why planning first prevents AI slop \- Power\-user territory: custom skills\, subagents\, and hooks\, and how to know when to reach for each \- Context management and progressive disclosure \- Worktrees: running multiple agents in parallel and trusting the output **Speakers** Aritejh — Senior Software Engineer working on agentic applications in the FinTech industry. He's used Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and GitHub Copilot to ship agentic systems in production. Manaswini — Senior Backend Engineer passionate about tackling the hardest problems in this space. She's drawn to the start-up world and volunteers across communities to support women in tech. Eileen — Lead at Women Devs SG. She enjoys supporting others on their engineering journey and believes AI will reshape software development, pushing engineers to keep adapting how they learn, build, and think. **Who is this for?** Software developers already using Claude Code (or another agentic coding tool) who want to push their workflow further. Whether you live and breathe these tools or you're using them sometimes and want to level up, this one's for you! **What to bring** \- Your laptop with Claude Code installed beforehand\. This is hands\-on\, and we'd rather spend the time on techniques than on setup \- Your current workflow questions as there will be Q&A throughout **About the partners** Women Devs SG is a Singapore community for women developers that organizes events, mentorship, and spaces where engineers at every stage can learn from each other.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy. The session also highlights how serverless components such as AWS Lambda can be used for orchestration and real-time processing. **SPEAKER BIO** Mosaic Syed is a Senior Data Engineering and Cloud Solutions Architect with over 20 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, and high-performance data solutions across global enterprise environments. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mosaic-basha-syed-92300856 **CALL FOR SPEAKERS** Learn more: [https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/](https://www.awscolumbus.com/get-involved/) **THANK YOU** *VEEAM* for hosting our meetup!
