The Future of Engineering: From Backward to Forward Deployed Engineering

The Future of Engineering: From Backward to Forward Deployed Engineering. An evening for engineers and leaders who are past the demos.
The engineers who figure this out first are going to have an unfair advantage for the next five years. This is a small room — Engineers and Leaders from Provectus, Adobe, PyData Yerevan, and UATE getting honest about two problems:

• ​Systemic Engineering: How do you make AI a structural part of how your team builds software? Not a tool someone uses occasionally. Not a productivity hack. A repeatable, responsible change to how your team actually works.
• ​Business Transformation: How do you make AI change how the business runs — not just the code? Most enterprises are paying for transformation and getting automation. The gap between those two things is what this panel is about.

​Interactive Panel
​Panel: Forward Deployed Engineering — One Altitude Higher

• ​Focus: The realities, bottlenecks, and architectural trade-offs of deploying complex AI systems into enterprise environments.

​Panelists:

• ​Stepan Pushkarev — Co-founder & CEO/CTO, Provectus
• ​Konstantin Makarychev — Engineering Director, Provectus

• ​Gagik Sukiasyan — Director of Engineering, Adobe

​Two sessions. Practitioners with real scars. Come with your hardest question. The people in this room have probably already broken something trying to answer it.
