Fireside chat with top infra leaders on building resilient real-world systems at scale from failures and incidents to AI-era challenges.
About this Event

Rippling is hosting a fireside chat with top infrastructure leaders on how to build and operate reliable real-world systems at scale.


The discussion will focus on practical lessons from running mission-critical systems—what fails in the real world, how teams engineer resilience, and how leaders navigate incidents, growth, and emerging challenges in distributed systems and AI workloads. The panelists are experts who’ve built and operated mission-critical systems in fast-growing, high-stakes environments.
