Roundtable: Reimagining Technical Interviews When AI Writes Code

As generative AI continues to reshape the development landscape, traditional technical interviews need to evolve. Join us for a dynamic roundtable where engineering leaders will explore the future of technical hiring in an AI-driven world.

In this interactive session, we’ll unpack:

1. How AI-generated code is shifting the focus from syntax to problem-solving, design thinking, and critical reasoning
2. New evaluation frameworks that prioritize algorithmic understanding, creativity, and collaboration over pure coding proficiency
3. Best practices for mitigating bias, ensuring fairness, and maintaining integrity in AI-influenced hiring processes
4. Innovative interview strategies to assess candidates’ ability to adapt, debug, and solve complex challenges

Hosted by Nikrad Mahdi, technical advisor and former VP of Engineering at DeepScribe (AI scribe) and a veteran of engineering leadership roles at Dropbox, Figma, Quip, Salesforce, and Slack. Nikrad brings deep expertise in building collaborative, productive, and creative engineering cultures.

Join us to exchange actionable strategies, explore new interview frameworks, and connect with peers shaping the future of technical hiring.
