🚀 Curated Gathering of Senior Industry Leaders
Join a small group of founders and engineering leaders for an evening of honest conversations on what it really takes to build in an AI-first decade.
We’ll open with a panel conversation featuring senior engineering leaders who are actively building and scaling teams in AI-first environments - sharing how AI is reshaping products, teams, and core engineering decisions.
Speakers:
• Rohit Khanna, VP Engineering, CodeRabbit (ex-Founder, Toplyne)
• Rohit Nambiar, VP Engineering, Paytm, ex VP Engineering CloudSEK
• Aditya C, VP Engineering, MoEngage, ex VP Engineering Dream11
Moderator:
Suhas Motwani, Co-Founder, The Product Folks.
From there, we’ll move into an open-room discussion with others navigating the same shift.
This evening is part of Newton School of Technology’s effort to reimagine engineering education for an AI-first world - shaped directly by the people building this future.
We’ll explore questions like:
How engineering workflows are evolving with AI in the loop
What “AI-ready talent” looks like for fast-moving teams
How companies move from prototypes to production - and where real moats in AI are emerging
Expect an open room conversation with others building through this transition - high-signal conversations with people who get it.
Whether you’re a founder, CTO, engineering leader, senior ICs shaping AI adoption, this is your chance to
Meet leaders wrestling with the same questions you are
Understand where real moats are emerging (and where they’re not)
See how others are operationalising AI inside high-paced teams
Help shape how next-gen engineering talent is built
