📅 Thursday, March 19th
🕕 11:00 AM PST | 2:00 PM EST
📍 Live on Streamyard
Now that coding has become as easy as using natural language and talking... the teams pulling ahead are asking for more. They want engineers to look beyond the codebase, and become actual product owners who run the entire development cycle.
The only question is: how do you actually make that Agent-Native shift happen org wide?
Join Iba and Syed (the Gitfather) for a live conversation with engineering teams on a step-by-step breakdown on how to empower your engineers to stop just writing code, and going agent native to start owning the product. After building in productivity and AI as serial founders for 15+ years, and interviewing over 300 engineering leaders, we're bringing you a live show to talk about this new era we're navigating of agents and humans....together!
In this week's episode sponsored by Optimal AI, we're chatting the latest and greatest in agents and will also be bringing in an Engineering Leader from Hubspot and Actabl.
We’ll cover:
Rebecca Yang (Director of Engineering) - building teams that take full accountability for business outcomes and scalable technical success.
Zachary Alexander (Former SVP of Engineering at Actabl) - A strategic architect of high-growth technical orgs. Formerly at Actabl, Zachary specializes in maturing the engineering lifecycle and scaling elite teams to meet complex product demands.
Hosted by Iba Masood & Syed Ahmed, Serial founders and YC alums, now building Optimal AI
Plus, a live Q&A
