The Changing Role of Software Engineering
4th floor, San Francisco, CA 94105
5pm–7:30pm PDT





What does it mean to be a software engineer when AI writes the code? The role is changing faster than most teams can track. Copilots, agents, autonomous testing, AI-generated PRs — the craft is shifting, and nobody has a clean answer yet on what that means for how engineers work, how teams are built, or what skills actually matter now.
Join super{set} and Founders Bay for an evening of honest conversation with engineers and leaders who are navigating this in real time.
Three practitioners. Three vantage points. A startup studio building AI-native companies from scratch, a hardware giant designing the infrastructure that runs them, and a scaling team shipping AI agents into production today.
We'll get into what's actually changing on the ground. Things like: how engineering workflows are being restructured, what it looks like to hire and manage engineers when AI handles more of the execution, where human judgment still matters most, and more (including your questions - bring them).
