Jacob Castello

Lead Site Reliability Engineer N26

CONFERENCE DAY ONE - Wednesday 22nd October

10:00 AM PANEL DISCUSSION: Building AI-Driven Developer Applications – Challenges & Opportunities

As AI shifts from experimentation to embedded functionality, engineering leaders face a new paradigm in how developer tools and platforms are built, deployed, and measured. This panel brings together experts building AI-powered developer applications to explore the operational, architectural, and cultural shifts required to make AI work in practice.

  • Why AI represents a new paradigm in platform and software engineering.
  • Troubleshooting AI applications without access to real-world data.
  • Balancing rapid experimentation with cost, latency, and error reduction.
  • Managing data decay and abstracting telemetry for long-term AI performance.
  • The impact of AI systems on Developer Experience metrics.
  • Where AI is already delivering measurable value - and where it’s not.
