AI Native Engineering Utah

A meetup for engineers, PMs, and designers who are rethinking how software gets built in the age of AI.

We're past the "should we use AI?" phase. The real questions now are harder and more interesting: How do you architect codebases that AI agents can actually navigate? What does code review look like when 80% of the diff was written by Claude or Cursor? How do you spec a product when your designer is prototyping in v0 and your PM is generating user research synthesis with an LLM? What breaks when you try to scale agentic workflows past a single developer?

Each month we'll get together for talks, demos, and honest conversations from people doing this work in production, not theory, not hype, just what's actually working (and what isn't).

Topics we'll cover:

• Agentic coding workflows (Claude Code, Cursor, Warp, Codex, etc.) and how teams are integrating them
• Architecting codebases and documentation for AI agents
• Evals, observability, and testing for AI-powered features
• MCP servers, tool use, and giving agents real capabilities
• Spec-driven development and how PRDs are evolving
• AI in design and prototyping (v0, Figma Make, Lovable, Claude Design)
• The shifting shape of engineering roles, team structures, and hiring
• Hard-won lessons on what scales and what doesn't

Who should come:
Engineers, founders, PMs, designers, and anyone building software where AI is a first-class part of the stack, not a bolt-on feature. Whether you're at a startup going hands-off on manual coding or at a larger company figuring out how to roll this out responsibly, you'll find your people here.

We meet monthly in Utah County. Talks are short, discussions are real, and the bar for "interesting" is high.
