Forever Junior: The skills AI can’t develop for you
Told to use AI but still 'keep a hand on the wheel'?
AI can write your code, but not your career.
Here's how to use agents as a junior software development engineer and still learn the job.
Elise Baturone
Software Development Engineer - Criteo
Elise Baturone is a Junior Software Engineer at Criteo on the Platform Experience team, which simplifies how developers interact with Criteo's internal platform services.
There, they work on the company's Internal Developer Platform, improving discoverability and enabling self-service workflows so that developers can build, deploy, and manage applications more efficiently.
Graduates of the software engineering school EPITA, they did both of their internships at Criteo, the second with the same team that hired them full-time in 2025.
Having started their career alongside AI coding agents, they are particularly interested in how Juniors can use such tools to move faster without skipping the learning that makes them better engineers.
Beyond the Pager: AI as My SRE Investigation Partner
Make AI useful in the SRE world by creating skills that help investigate latency, debug performance, and plan capacity at scale.

Creativity & GenAI: How to leverage human expertise
Generative AI is profoundly transforming the world of marketing and media.
In this talk, I will share L'Oréal's vision and showcase concrete use cases that demonstrate how we are leveraging this technological wave as a powerful catalyst for acceleration and reinvention across our brands.
