If you own developer experience, you already know the feeling. The golden paths you spent years paving were built for humans, and now agents do a lot of the work while your engineers spend their days reviewing and directing them.

While coding itself is largely solved, the harder part now is everything around it. Output is up while shipping often isn't any faster. The old playbook doesn't map onto how software gets built today, and everyone is working out the new one.

So we're bringing together the people rebuilding DX for the agentic age: a panel of engineering leaders who own developer experience, in a room kept small enough that the conversation stays candid and you get to meet everyone.

This is the best way to learn what's working, where the bottlenecks are, and where other teams think DX is heading.

The event is hosted by Trunk and EngFlow at Trunk HQ. Capacity is tight and RSVPs are subject to approval. Get on the list before it closes!

This event is a part of #SFTechWeek - a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com.
