AI agents are getting better at writing software. That doesn’t mean the software is getting better. As AI systems become more autonomous, engineering teams face a different set of problems: unreliable outputs, untestable workflows, evaluation bottlenecks, and legacy systems that weren’t designed for any of this. At this Future Form session, we’re looking at what happens when agentic systems collide with production engineering reality. **Speakers:** **Ning Lu, VP, Aladdin Financial Engineering, BlackRock** Ning explores the evolving landscape of LLM evaluation. From static benchmarks to LLM-as-judge systems and agent trajectory review, he’ll break down how engineering teams can evaluate systems that don’t behave deterministically. **Katie Roberts, Technical Director & AI Native Specialist, Nearform** Katie will show how AI-native engineering can be applied inside mature brownfield systems. Using patterns like the Strangler Fig approach, she’ll explore how to isolate risk, generate tests for undocumented code, and evolve legacy architectures without full rewrites. If you’re working with AI agents, legacy systems, or production engineering workflows, this session is for you. Pizza, drinks, and practical AI insights included.

## Details Welcome to the DevSecOps London Gathering June Event on Wednesday 24 June! We bring you two more great speakers, as well as the usual conversations, pizza and beer! 📍 **Hosted at Autogen AI, 123 Pentonville Road, London, N1 9LG** 📅 **Wednesday, 24 June 2026** 🕕 **6:00–8:00 PM** ## **Talk** **Abstracts:** **Talk 1 - AI Pentesting by Andy Hornegold** A talk about Pentesting **Speaker Bio**: **Name:** Andy Hornegold **Title:** Chief Security Technologist at Intruder **Bio:** Andy has a long career in cyber security including a decade in threat simulation and consulting. He’s worked with some of the largest organisations and brands across most industries and sectors, advising how to defend themselves against advanced threat actors. Career highlights include being the Assurance Regional Lead at one of the UK's leading cyber security consultancies, managing a team of 30 cyber security consultants, and helping critical national infrastructure providers stay secure. **Talk 2 - A Deep Dive into SAML by Glyn Wintle** Glyn will explain how SAML works (yes there will be lots of xkcd cartoons), the flaws found in standard deployments and give example in most implementations, walk through some of the attack/defence techniques that work with any xml based protocol and digital signatures before going deeper into some more technobabble just for you. Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML, pronounced sam-el) is an XML-based, open-standard data format for exchanging authentication and authorization data between parties, in particular, between an identity provider and a service provider. Think enterprise single sign on, used by governments, large companies, web sites, what could possibly go wrong? **Speaker Bio:** Glyn is CTO at Tradecraft. They are security consultancy, specialising in attack. Tradecraft helps organisations to become more secure by breaching their systems in the same way as criminal hackers, and then working with them over the long term to help fix what they find, and to help them get better at finding and fixing things for themselves. Glyn has been in security for over ten years, and before that he used to program. He has appeared before parliament to give evidence on some of the more crazy laws they have introduced connected to the internet, and has worked with the Open Rights Group lobbying on trying to fix some of them.

**Hello There! And welcome to our June Gophers @ Meta event!** It's immensely exciting that we'll be visiting Meta for our June event, but with great big office comes great responsibility, so it is **CRITICAL THAT YOU HEED THESE ENTRY REQUIREMENTS!** * You MUST bring Government Issued Photo ID with you, matching the name with which you sign up to this event * You MUST complete the NDA that will be emailed to you in advance of the event, before arrival * You MUST be over 18 years old * You MUST NOT record when inside the venue * You MUST wear the lanyard provided to you on the night at all times And needless to say, if you satisfy all of those criteria and manage to make it through security without being tackled, you MUST have a lovely time otherwise you know I'll be giving you a hard stare. A massive thank you to Meta for hosting! See you all there! ==== 📓 **Agenda**📓 ===== (Certain timings and orders may be subject to change) **5:30pm onwards:** Sign-In, Food & Refreshments **6:55pm:** Introduction **7:00pm:** 🗣️ **Jon Bodner: Testing Go: From the Basics to synctest** Testing is fundamental to software engineering and as a language focused on software engineering, Go includes a wide variety of tools to ensure your code is working as expected. I’ll walk through the basics of testing in Go, and then cover some of the more advanced tools: benchmarking, fuzzing, and the new synctest package. **7:40pm:** Raffle and Break **8:00pm: 🗣️** **Oleg Obleukhov: Time @ Meta** Discover how Meta uses Go to build PTP and NTP - open-source, highly efficient time synchronization systems that achieve nanoseconds precision. **8:30pm:** Break **8:40pm: 🗣️** **Simon Emms: Failure Happens. Your Code Shouldn't Care** As Gophers, we expect our code to be retried, restarted and run more than once. The challenge is making that safe and maintainable without layers of defensive plumbing. Temporal lets us write reliable workflows in Go that automatically recover from crashes and restarts, while still looking and feeling like normal Go code. In this talk, I’ll explain how it works and prove it with a live demo that treats failure as just another code path. **9:10pm:** Raffle Winners! **9:30pm:** Pub / Socialize ==== 🎉 **Prizes & Discounts!** 🎉 ===== **JetBrains Raffle!** \- We have 3 free JetBrains Product licenses to give away to some of our lucky attendees\! **Ardan Labs Raffle!** \- We're giving away one course license for Ardan Labs' Ultimate Go Bundle\! **Manning Publications Raffle!** \- We're giving away 4 free Go e\-books\! **45% Manning Publications Discount** \- a massive discount provided by the fine people at Manning\!

**Agentic Engineering with Alibaba Cloud** ***Models, Memory, Tooling & Deployment for Production AI Systems*** 🙏 Please note Thant we only taking registrations from the [LUMA](https://luma.com/hdygxmyx) for this event. If you are RSVP on meetup, you also need to register on [LUMA](https://luma.com/hdygxmyx) LUMA LINK: https://luma.com/hdygxmyx Agentic AI is rapidly moving from experimentation to production. Building successful AI systems today requires much more than selecting a foundation model. Teams must make decisions around model strategy, RAG, memory architecture, enterprise integrations, deployment infrastructure, governance, performance, cost, reliability, and long-term scalability. Join **[London Agentic AI](https://londonagenticai.com/?utm_source=luma)** and **[Alibaba Cloud](https://www.alibabacloud.com/?utm_source=luma)** for an evening dedicated to the engineering behind modern AI systems along with talks from leadership of [Tomoro AI](https://tomoro.ai/?utm_source=luma) and [Recombine AI](https://recombine.ai/?utm_source=luma). This event brings together AI engineers, founders, technical leaders, and practitioners, CEO/CTOs who are actively building and deploying production AI systems across startups and entprises. If you are building AI-native products, deploying enterprise AI solutions, evaluating open-weight models, or scaling agentic systems into production, this event will provide practical knowledge from people solving these challenges every day. **Speakers** Talk 1: [Alex McLeman](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexmcleman/?utm_source=luma) :**Strategic Solutions Architect, Alibaba Cloud** Alibaba Cloud Strategic Solutions Architect, will walking the model portfolio behind Alibaba Cloud Model Studio, one of the broadest open-weight catalogues in production today. You'll leave with a clear view of which model fits which workload (RAG, agents, fine-tuning, multimodal pipelines, on-prem inference economics), and where Apache 2.0 licensing reshapes your build vs. buy math. Engineering-led conversation. Bring questions. Talk: 2 [Rishabh Sagar](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rish-sagar/?utm_source=luma): **Co-founder, Tomoro AI** **AI Systems That Remember: Memory's Role within the Agent Architecture** Memory is what separates a stateless model call from a genuinely useful AI system. In this session, we'll explore why persistent memory is becoming a foundational layer of the harness around modern agentic systems, the infrastructure that shapes how a model behaves without ever touching its weights. Get this right, and you build experiences that compound in value over time. Talk 3: [Stas Bichenko](https://www.linkedin.com/in/stas-bichenko/?utm_source=luma) : **CEO, Recombine AI** **Auto-generating SDKs for conversational AI** Conversational AI agents are only as good as the data they can access. How do you connect your voice AI to complex enterprise-grade systems? How do you let the non-technical people control the agents that can make API calls? How do you keep conversations natural with high-latency API calls. It's easier than you might think. I'll go through the approach we've chosen at Recombine: generating the AI agent's SDKs automatically from API docs. **Panel Discussion & Audience Q&A** Deploying Agentic AI in Production: What Actually Works?Following the talks, join an interactive panel discussion featuring all speakers, followed by audience Q&A. Bring your questions and engage directly with leaders building and deploying AI systems today. **What You'll Learn** 🧠 How memory architectures are becoming a foundational layer of modern AI systems 📦 How to evaluate and deploy models for agentic applications, RAG systems, multimodal workloads, and enterprise use cases 🛠️ How AI agents can safely and effectively connect to enterprise systems through APIs, tooling, and integrations 🚀 Deployment strategies, infrastructure considerations, and operational best practices for production AI systems 💰 Model selection, cost optimization, inference economics, and build versus buy decisions 🌐 How open-weight ecosystems such as Qwen are influencing the future of enterprise AI adoption **Why Attend?** This is a technical and engineering-focused event designed for people building real AI systems.

This June we're at FundApps offices in HYLO, Bunhill Row. Chris Simon's back in town, and will be joining us to talk about streams and queues; plus Tiago Sousa from SteelEye will be talking about the work they're doing around using AI in comms surveillance. Our hosts at FundApps will be providing drinks and snacks, and there will be plenty of time to chat beforehand and in the pub afterwards. **Chris Simon: It's like 10,000 streams when what you need is a queue** *🎶🎵 A new dev team adopted E-D-A* *Got head of line blocking, on their very first day* *Isn't it ironic, don't you think 🎶🎵* The last few years have seen widespread adoption of Event-Driven Architecture, supported by DDD practices such as event storming. But what does that orange sticky note become when we start implementing our design? Common implementation choices include event sourcing, streaming platforms like Kafka and queuing systems like RabbitMQ. Unfortunately not every orange sticky note has the same operational needs, and many teams remain confused about the differences between these options, resulting in the selection of the wrong paradigm for their needs. This can lead to unnecessary complexity & operational challenges such as head of line blocking, dropped messages, challenges dealing with failed messages, difficulty with adaptive scaling and inadvertently increasing coupling between services. In this talk we'll bring that orange sticky note into the runtime of our system. We’ll start with a deep dive into the similarities and differences between event streaming platforms such as Kafka and queueing systems such as RabbitMq, Azure Service Bus & AWS SNS/SQS. We’ll then look at ways to assess your orange sticky notes to work out which messaging and persistence paradigms suit each one, helping you build more resilient, scalable and loosely coupled event-driven architectures. **Tiago Sousa: AI in Comms Surveillance** In this talk, Tiago shares what it's actually like to build AI for communications surveillance at SteelEye. Financial firms are required to monitor and flag communications for compliance, but making AI work reliably in that context is harder than it sounds. He'll walk through real examples from the trenches: what worked, what didn't, and what he'd do differently. **Tiago Sousa** is a Staff Data Engineer and AI Lead at SteelEye - a platform that helps financial firms monitor and flag communications and trades to stay compliant with regulations. He's spent the last five years building the data and AI systems that make that work. Before that, he did research in bioinformatics, which means he came into fintech from an unusual angle and has the scars to prove it. He's based in Braga, Portugal.
