The New AI Developer Stack: From Prototype to Production
The modern software engineering stack is undergoing its most radical transformation in decades. As software shifts from static CRUD architectures toward autonomous, agentic systems, forward-deployed and product engineers face an entirely new set of technical hurdles: non-deterministic execution, complex tool calling, customer-isolated cloud runtimes, and replacing traditional unit testing with continuous evaluations.
Join MobileMonday and the Applied Intelligence Forum for an evening of engineering-focused discussion with the founders and builders shaping this transition. We’ll cut through the generative AI hype to examine what is actually running in production across enterprise VPCs and client deployments today.

Panelists
Sarah Wooders - CTO/Co-Founder, Letta: Letta is an AI research lab in San Francisco building machines that learn. We envision a future where humans coexist with digital people: experiential agents that remember everything, learn continuously, and improve themselves over time.
Joe Salesky - Head of AI Research, Recon Analytics: Recon Analytics is a research and consulting firm dedicated to empowering leaders in fast-moving industries like telecommunications, AI, and airlines to take fact-based, decisive action. Founded by renowned analyst Roger Entner, our mission is to deliver actionable intelligence at the speed of business, helping you navigate complex market dynamics and turn uncertainty into a competitive advantage.Blake Rogers
Blake Rogers - Applied AI Architect, Builder & Fractional CTO: 25 years building software in Silicon Valley. Creator of Cascadia Console, which turns plain-language requirements into system instructions for coding agents, so prototypes come out with less babysitting and fewer bugs.
Chris Heuer - Ecosystem Development, The AI Operating System: AI as a team, not a tool. The AIOS turns AI into co-workers — a legal you, an accountant you, a marketing you, an engineering you. Orchestrated by you, governed by your intent, compounding every day.
Key Discussion Topics:
Orchestration Beyond Single Prompts: Designing stateful, collaborative multi-agent architectures that balance deterministic software logic with autonomous execution.
The New QA Layer: Replacing rigid test suites with graded evals, OpenTelemetry-based tracing, and drift detection for non-deterministic model outputs.
Enterprise Tooling & Protocol Standards: Bridging agents to external enterprise APIs, managing OAuth/identity, and handling reliable execution across Model Context Protocol (MCP) gateways.
Production Runtimes & Governance: Managing model routing, low-latency inference, Kubernetes-native deployments, and strict enterprise security controls in private clouds.
Who Should Attend: Software engineers, forward-deployed engineers (FDEs), technical founders, and engineering leaders building, benchmarking, or shipping agentic systems into complex enterprise environments.
