Platform engineering meetup: Redefining change validation in an unsecured AI-first world
In this Platform Engineering Meetup, we’ll explore how to redefine change validation for an unsecured, AI-first world: building security and governance into every commit, enforcing policy through paved roads and golden paths, and standardizing safe defaults (identity, secrets, provenance, checks) so teams can ship fast without turning your platform into an attack surface.
AI is moving fast, but in the race to adopt coding agents many teams are overlooking what makes change validation safe and repeatable at scale, without shared workflows and built-in security, AI-driven change often leads to more noise, more risk, and more firefighting. Join other platform engineers and practitioners for an open, practical discussion with people shipping in production, and bring your war stories, wins, failures, and questions.
During the meetup we’ll discuss:
- How AI is changing the shape of change validation, and how to recognize when speed starts to create new security and operational risk.
- What it looks like to build security into the “happy path” of delivery, using platform thinking to make safe change validation the default, not the exception.
- How platform teams can evolve their role in an AI-first world: from enabling delivery to redefining how change validation stays trustworthy, governed, and scalable.
