⚠️ Check the date! We're meeting on the 2nd Thursday this month.We will discuss recent security headlines as usual and then we will level up our AI game and talk about agentic software engineering. In a world where "vibe coding" has become a bit of a pejorative, come learn how to do agentic software engineering right. Alex Flores will present a talk titled "Agentic Software Engineering."
Agentic Software EngineeringEvery AI coding agent — Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot — is the same three things: instructions, tools, and an LLM. This talk strips away the mystery, showing you how agents actually work under the hood and why that mental model changes how you use them. You'll walk away with practical conversation strategies, a clear picture of MCP and Skills, and a repeatable workflow for getting consistent, useful results from agent-assisted development.
About the PresenterAlex FloresAlex works in Security Operations, formerly as a Red Teamer but now tasked with agentic integration across the blue team space.
