JioHotstar ScaleUp 03 | Rewiring Engineering for the AI Era
What does it take to build AI-native products and engineering systems?
AI is fundamentally transforming how engineering systems are designed, built and operated. This goes beyond adopting AI tools, it is reshaping the entire software lifecycle and how engineering organizations build, deliver and scale products.
ScaleUp 03 brings together technology leaders and practitioners to examine this shift, from the systems enabling AI-native development to the engineering practices and leadership decisions shaping what comes next.
Expect a technical deep dive into the AI-native engineering stack, followed by a fireside conversation on what it takes to build and scale in the age of AI. The evening will bring together perspectives from practitioners working on engineering systems and leaders navigating AI adoption at scale.
Not just what AI can do, but what it takes to engineer for it.
On the agenda
01 | Technical Deep Dive
AI-first culture needs AI-first infrastructure and mindset.
