​An event dedicated to exploring all things AI Engineering!

​Event partners: Aikido & Datadog

​Agenda

​​​​​🕒 5:30 pm – 5:40 pm
Welcome and Opening Remarks

​​​​​🎤 Marijan Cipcic, Principal Events Manager & Asako Hayase, Pacer, Community Ambasador at Daytona

​🕒 5:40 pm – 5:55 pm
Talk "Cloud Sandboxes for AI Coding Agents"​

​​​​​🎤 James Murdza, Pacer, Community Ambassador at Daytona

​​​​​​​Outline:

​We’ll demo how to run AI coding agents, including Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode, in secure cloud-based sandboxes. We’ll also evaluate integration techniques and look at the security implications of deploying coding agents in cloud environments.

​🕒 5:55 pm – 6:15 pm
Talk "Get Security Done: Streamlining Application Security with Aikido"

​🎤 Madeline Lawrence, Chief Growth Officer at Aikido Security

​​​​​​​Bio:

​After founding a micro-fund fresh out of law school, Madeline spent the past few years rising through the ranks of European VC, eventually becoming a partner at a €150M fund by the age of 25, with viral pranks and a punchy critique of the industry following in her wake. She then made the jump to the light side, leaving her career in venture capital for an operator role, and is now delivering "no bullshit security" to developers worldwide as CGO of Aikido.

​​​​​​​Outline:

​Security is often seen as a killer of productivity when tools flood developers with false positives and break their flow. In this session, we explore a more streamlined approach to application security by integrating multiple scanners directly into the SDLC while cutting down noise. We’ll also demonstrate how AI can help fix vulnerabilities and generate compliance reports automatically, so teams can spend less time triaging alerts and more time shipping code.

​🕒 6:15 pm – 6:25 pm
Talk “Connecting Agents to the Web”

​🎤 Sofia Guzowski, Tavily

​​​​​​​Outline:

​Tavily is a developer-first web search API built to help teams retrieve high-quality results from the web. In this talk, we’ll introduce Tavily and walk through the core endpoints: Search, Extract, and Crawl, with a live demo. We’ll then highlight Tavily’s newest product, the Research Endpoint, and showcase its SOTA performance through a live demo.

​​About event

​Daytona AI Builders Series brings together the people building the next layer of AI infrastructure. Each month we focus on practical problems for scaling agents — from secure execution and cost control to reliability and new protocols. The goal: equip builders with the tools and insights to ship agent-native systems into production.
