What you'll learn

Understand the Next Shift in AI Engineering

If everyone knows how to do RAGs, and Agentic projects are failing, whats next?

Recognize Skill Gaps and Opportunities

Knowing LangGraph, Pydantic, CrewAI, n8n is no longer enough.

Key Concepts to stand out in your next interview

Which core concepts from AI Architect Interview, Inference Engineering Interviews do I need to know

Why this topic matters

AI engineering isn’t just about models anymore, it’s about understanding systems that serve them. Roles are already being framed around practical, production‑ready skills rather than toy projects, like can do you resource profiling or performance measurement in test v/s prod? In this session, we will look into real interview questions i.e. takehome/case-study questions.
