Most of us started our AI journey with what is now called „vibe coding.“ We experimented with conversational prompts, watched code generators spit out impressive snippets, and manually copy-pasted them into our IDEs. It felt like a massive leap forward. But manual prompting doesn’t scale. It is fragile, introduces context silos, and quickly breaks down in complex systems.
Today, the discipline is shifting toward Agentic Engineering, moving away from casual chat interfaces towards treating LLMs as interconnected components within a structured software development lifecycle. As we automate the lifecycle, the bottlenecks shift. The challenge is no longer about writing code faster; it’s about how we handle planning, context mapping, and systemic verification.
In this 60-minute deep dive, Hans will share a practical look at how software engineering is evolving. Moving past the hype, he will demonstrate how to build deterministic workflows that connect your product tools to your engineering environment. Together with Hans you will walk through:
– The Present Setup: A live workflow showing how user feedback can systematically generate structured issues in Linear and map directly into Cursor to eliminate manual friction.
– Specification over Prompting: Shifting from loose prompts to structured, machine-readable specifications that act as a source of truth for your tools.
– The Next 18 Months: How the task horizon is expanding from short chat loops to autonomous, long-running agent networks, and why our primary role is shifting toward engineering the testing harnesses and guardrails that verify the output.
Whether you are a tech lead, developer, or product person, this session offers a framework for moving from isolated AI assistants to an organized, agentic engineering pipeline.
