It was 2013 when we built a real-time voting system for a German live TV show on AWS. That project turned me into a builder who cares about one thing: shipping software that solves a real business problem. The code was only ever how we got there.

Today I lead the Bundesliga ContentHub at Bundesliga as Tech Lead and Engineering Manager, a cross-functional team of engineers, a product owner, and designers. My conviction: every builder on the team, not just the engineers, should be able to ship production code with AI-assisted software engineering.

I am an AWS DevTools Hero and the founder of promptz.dev. I write and speak about agentic engineering with Kiro. Not only what the tool can do in theory (spec-driven development, context as currency), but what it actually looks like when a real cross-functional team builds software with it. The PR that got reverted, the process that had to change, the designer who shipped her first backend change.

If you are a builder in the AWS community, or a lead trying to bring AI-assisted engineering into your team, this is where I share what works and what breaks.

Mollie Adler is the creator and host of Back from the Borderline, a long-form podcast exploring depth psychology, philosophy, religious history, Western esotericism and the ways human beings develop their understanding of reality.

Her work investigates how we come to believe what we believe, how institutions influence our understanding of the world and how ideas change as they’re passed between generations. Through conversations with scholars and independent researchers, alongside her own audio essays, she explores everything from Jungian psychology and Christian mysticism to artificial intelligence, occult history and contemporary culture.

Her independent platform has grown into a substantial creator-supported community, with:

* 7,000+ Patreon members
* A global ranking in the top 0.5% of podcasts, according to Listen Notes
* Hundreds of long-form episodes exploring psychology, philosophy and contemporary life

Adler approaches controversial subjects with intellectual independence, investigating unconventional theories while remaining willing to question the authorities promoting them. Her work draws on historical research, depth psychology and cultural criticism, with a particular concern for how institutions can preserve valuable knowledge while also restricting the ways people understand and use it.

She is also the co-founder of MOODS, a reflective intelligence platform that uses AI to support dreamwork, Tarot study and sustained personal inquiry. The project explores how emerging technologies might support human reflection rather than simply provide instant answers.

Adler has spoken at South by Southwest (SXSW) about artificial intelligence and consciousness, and her work has been featured in outlets including Novara Media.

Her speaking subjects include artificial intelligence and consciousness, the psychology of emerging technologies, Western esotericism, religious history, Jungian psychology, institutional authority and the cultural forces influencing contemporary belief.

She welcomes invitations for conference talks, podcast interviews, panel discussions and media collaborations.

Speaking and media inquiries can be submitted through ⁠backfromtheborderline.com.

Francesco Marinoni Moretto works on agent-native commerce, how merchants and publishers make their catalogs and content legible to AI purchasing agents.

He is the author of the Layered Agentic Retrieval (LAR) working paper and the forthcoming book "Selling to Agents: The Merchant Playbook for Agentic Commerce".

His current focus is the publisher-side surfaces -and the payment rails (UCP/ACP, HTTP Message Signatures)- that sit in front of MCP and APIs. He also builds open tooling for probing and serving agent-consumable commerce endpoints (like ucp-probe and the LAR spec).

He also created two open-source frameworks on AI reliability, Stream Coding, a documentation-first methodology for AI-accelerated development (stream-coding.com), and Clarity Gate, a pre-ingestion verification protocol for RAG epistemic quality (github.com/frmoretto/clarity-gate), both from a single thesis: LLMs don't need help, they need clear and excellent documentation.

Based in Milan, he is AI Practice and Community Leader at N1AI, a 400+ member professional group.

Recently he moderated a roundtable hosted by GS1 Italy on agentic commerce and was the guest in a fireside chat at the ILTA Legal Tech On Tour in Milan. He presents regularly at Milan AI events including Claude Code Meetup, AI Tinkerers and Aperitivo AI.

Deepak Wadhwani is a New Delhi-based speaker and entrepreneur known as the Business Buddha — a philosophy built on a simple premise: ambition guided by awareness, and calm as a leadership strategy, not a compromise on it.

As a speaker, Deepak has taken the stage at TEDx with "The Art of Persuasion," a talk built around a counter-intuitive idea — that real influence comes not from being louder, but from being clearer. He regularly speaks at business forums, leadership events, and entrepreneur communities on persuasion, conscious leadership, and the discipline of staying still in fast-moving industries. His talks are conversations, not performances — reflective, direct, and built around the question rooms full of business owners are usually too busy to ask themselves.
He is also a frequent voice on podcasts, where his unscripted, in-conversation style has become one of his most recognized formats — long-form discussions on business, persuasion, and leadership where the value lies in honest thinking rather than rehearsed answers.

Alongside his speaking work, Deepak is the founder of Natraj Home Furnishings and serves as India Growth Director for The Alternative Board (TAB), where he advises CEOs and business owners directly. He also runs the Chirag Foundation, a nonprofit established in memory of his late brother.

His core message across stages, podcasts, and boardrooms remains the same: build without noise. The most important decisions are rarely made in urgency — they're made in stillness, after the noise settles.
