Build & Deploy AI Agents | SF Tech Week
Hosted by NodeOps and Jutsu.ai
Join us for an in-depth workshop and discussion on taking AI agents from prototype to production. We'll explore how Jutsu's AI workspace enables seamless building and deployment of robust agents, combined with NodeOps' decentralized infrastructure for scalable, secure compute.
Food and drinks provided (RSVP to make sure we have enough!)
Speakers Zahidul Islam, Founder at Jutsu Social: https://linkedin.com/in/zahiduli
Juliana Mei, NodeOps Dev Rel Twitter/X: [@JNodeOps]
Agenda
12:00pm - Doors Open & Networking (with Mediterranean Lunch!)
12:30pm - Opening Remarks
12:40pm - Talk: Building AI Dev Rel with Jutsu by Zahid Islam
1:20pm - Talk: Deploying Agents at Scale on NodeOps DePIN Infrastructure by Juliana Mei
2:00pm - Q&A and Social Time
3:00pm - Doors Close
Talk #1 Abstract (Deploying Apps on NodeOps DePIN Infrastructure by Juliana Mei):
CI/CD can be easy! We're going to show you a better way to build and deploy apps using the NodeOps Network's DePIN Infrastructure for resilience and scalability. It's so easy, if you blink you'll miss it!
Talk #2 Abstract (Building AI Dev Rel with Jutsu by Zahid Islam):
Developer support is the lifeblood of every technical ecosystem — but scaling it is hard. Traditional chatbots and FAQ bots break down when context shifts, documentation changes, or developer intent gets nuanced. This workshop explores Agentic RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) how it’s used in real-world developer workflows (docs, GitHub issues, hackathons). We’ll finish with a live demo of AgentRel, showing how it can instantly answer real developer questions across docs, GitHub, and Discord — scaling DevRel support like never before.
