Explore emerging developer careers in the AI era at this practical Techies and SGInnovate talk in Singapore on 22 October 2026. AI is reshaping how technology teams build, ship and operate products, and creating specialised roles at the intersection of engineering, business and users. This candid career session examines what these jobs involve day to day, which skills matter, current hiring trends and how practitioners found their way into the field. Topics covered - Forward Deployed Engineering: enterprise AI rollouts, customer engineering and field consulting - Developer Relations: developer communities, technical advocacy and translating user feedback into product features - AI Security Analysis: red teaming, model vulnerabilities, risk assessment and deployment security - AI Governance Analysis: compliance, practical frameworks and responsible AI development The evening opens with networking, followed by a panel discussion and Q&A. It then shifts into a Human Library: each practitioner hosts a table where attendees can ask direct questions, hear unfiltered career advice and explore individual career paths in small groups. This event is designed for software engineers considering their next move, technical product managers, AI builders, students, early-career professionals and career switchers exploring technical work beyond pure coding. The event runs 6:30–9:00pm GMT+8 at SGInnovate, 32 Carpenter Street, Singapore 059911.
