Intellectual Basis
Based on Gene Kim's Vibe Coding
This workshop builds on Vibe Coding by Gene Kim and Steve Yegge (foreword by Dario Amodei, Anthropic). We translate the book's core concepts into your concrete engineering practice — from the vibe-coding method to the FAAFO mindset and the engineer's new role.
The Challenge
AI Is Rewriting the Rules of Software Development
AI coding assistants are already part of daily work in many engineering teams. Adoption without structure, however, leads to inconsistent quality, security risks, and frustrated developers. The real question: how do you make AI a reliable part of your day-to-day engineering?
Slow Manual Development
Teams without AI augmentation are falling behind. Competitors ship faster and iterate more often — while you're still debating tooling strategy.
Uncertainty About AI's Real Impact
Demos and production are worlds apart. Hype creates pressure without clarity on real enterprise productivity. Where does invest pay off, where do you burn money?
Adoption Without Structure
Tool chaos — one team Copilot, another Cursor, a third nothing. Result: inconsistent quality, IP risks, compliance gaps.
What You'll Learn
Theory, Practice & Skills
Our workshop covers the full spectrum — from understanding why this shift matters strategically, to writing AI-augmented code with your own hands. Every topic combines explanation with practical exercises so you leave with real skills, not just slides.
Why Vibe Coding Matters
Why the economics of software development are shifting — and what it means for strategy, team sizing, and competitive advantage. Backed by real numbers from real organizations, not vendor slides.
From Executor to Director
Engineers move from executing tickets to designing, directing, and reviewing AI-generated work. The new skills: prompt engineering, architectural thinking, code review at scale — and the judgement to override AI.
Enterprise Use Cases
Vibe Coding in production systems, not toy demos. Real workflows in regulated industries, complex codebases, and large teams — with measurable wins in speed, quality, and satisfaction.
Rethink Estimation & Delivery
Story points, sprint planning, capacity models — all need rethinking. Practical frameworks for estimating AI-augmented work and structuring delivery pipelines that exploit faster coding cycles.
Hands-on AI Coding
You actually code with AI on real software — no watching. Task decomposition, prompt crafting, output verification, and hardening generated code for production use.
Modern Engineering for the AI Era
Modularity AI can work with. Feedback loops that catch AI errors early. Safe delivery patterns for confident shipping. Plus AI as an accelerator for learning new languages and frameworks.
Who It's For
Built for Tech Teams & Senior Engineers
Whether you make strategic AI decisions or write code every day — this workshop meets you where you are. We tailor depth and focus to the composition of your team.
CTOs, VPs of Engineering, Heads of Development who need to make strategic AI decisions — and need hands-on understanding to make them well.
Experienced developers, Tech Leads, Principal & Staff Engineers who want to modernize their craft and lead their teams through the AI transition.
Product owners, engineering managers, and tech-affine business leaders who want to understand what AI coding means for roadmap, cost, and quality.
Format
How It Works
No one-size-fits-all. We start with a scoping call to understand your team, your tech stack, and your goals. Then we build a personalized agenda that maximizes relevance. Here's the typical structure:
Before: Scoping call
A confidential conversation about your team, your tech stack, your goals. We build your personalized agenda on that basis — never off-the-shelf.
PrepStrategic Context & Market Analysis
Why vibe coding is not another trend. What Cisco, Disney, John Deere already do in production — and what it means for your org.
TheoryUnderstanding the Tools
Overview of the current tool landscape (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Codeium, agent frameworks). Strengths, weaknesses, use-case fit.
TheoryHands-on Lab: Vibe Coding
You work directly with the tools on real tasks from your tech stack. Honest review of AI outputs, patterns for good prompts, pitfalls experienced live.
PracticePatterns & Anti-Patterns
What works in enterprise settings, what doesn't. Code-quality gates, IP protection, security considerations, integration with Jira/Confluence/GitHub workflows.
PracticeQ&A + Action Plan
Open round on your concrete questions. You leave the workshop with an initial 90-day action plan for your team.
