Match & Learn: How Are Engineering Leaders Raising the Bar in the Age of AI?

AI is making engineers more capable than ever.

Tasks that once took days can now take hours. Prototypes are built faster. Code is generated more easily. Knowledge is available instantly.

As AI raises the floor, engineering leaders are facing a new question:

What makes an engineer exceptional now?

This Match & Learn session brings engineering leaders together for a series of focused 1:1 conversations around one of the most important leadership questions of the AI era:

How do we raise the bar when AI is raising the floor?

What we'll explore together:

1. Redefining High Performance: What separates exceptional engineers and teams as AI becomes part of the workflow?
2. The New Leadership Playbook: Which leadership practices matter more—and which matter less—in an AI-enabled organization?
3. Developing Talent Differently: How are leaders coaching, mentoring, and growing engineers when AI can accelerate many traditional learning paths?
4. What We Reward Now: How should hiring, performance reviews, and promotion criteria evolve as engineering work changes?

How it works:

1. In the course of the session, you'll be matched with other engineering leaders for a 10-minute video call
2. At the end of 10 minutes, you'll have the option to extend it or start another match

If you:

1. Are rethinking what great engineering performance looks like
2. Are adapting hiring, coaching, or promotion practices in response to AI
3. Want to develop stronger engineers and stronger teams
4. Are navigating rising expectations while maintaining a healthy engineering culture

If you've ever found yourself wondering:"What should exceptional engineering look like now?" This is the conversation for you.
