Full-stack development in the age of AI?

Designed with both emerging and experienced developers in mind! Join us at the Billy Frank Jr. Conference Center at Ecotrust for a discussion on today's rapidly evolving tech landscape, full-stack development is undergoing a significant transformation. This event is part of The Open Source Fellowship, offering an in-depth look at the shifting role of full-stack developers in the age of AI, open-source collaboration, and workforce innovation. We’ll kick off with informal networking among technologists, followed by a compelling keynote, which will unpack how developers are adapting to AI-assisted workflows, the increasing importance of collaborative tools, and the long-term value of full-stack thinking in a fragmented tech ecosystem.

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how full-stack skills are still relevant, if not essential in building adaptable, human-centered technologies.

The evening will continue with a candid panel discussion featuring local engineers who will share their career journeys, discuss how AI is impacting their day-to-day work, and offer practical advice for those breaking into tech.
