We’re excited to announce Daniel Moll as a speaker at Agentic Conf Hamburg on March 22nd!

About Daniel

Daniel Moll is a web and AI architect for digital solutions. His focus is on breaking rigid silos and creating sustainable success through creative, pragmatic processes for organizations of all sizes — from startups to enterprises. His journey: first website in 1999, then freelancer, lecturer, agency, startup, enterprise, and back to freelancing.

The Talk: “This (web) is for everyone!” – Reclaiming the Web with Agentic Engineering

Sir Tim Berners-Lee said “This is for everyone.” But what if “everyone” now means bots, AI agents, and large platforms — and no longer us as humans?

In this lightning talk, Daniel explores how we can reclaim the web with agentic engineering: through privacy by design, clear interfaces between humans and machines, and new, minimalist approaches to the web stack. Followed by a discussion on how we as engineers can contribute to making the web more open, sustainable, and human again.

We’re excited to announce Paul Stack as a speaker at Agentic Conf Hamburg on March 22nd!

About Paul

Paul Stack is Director of Product at System Initiative and a well-known voice in the infrastructure and DevOps community. He’s spoken at events around the world about his passion for continuous integration, continuous delivery, and solid operational practices – and why they should be part of what developers and system administrators do every day.

Paul believes that reliably delivering software is more important than its development. His focus areas are the DevOps and Continuous Delivery movements, and how they help the entire business and its customers.

You can follow Paul on X (@stack72).

The Talk: From Runbooks to Models: AI-Native Operations

When development velocity increases 10x through AI-assisted coding, operations becomes the bottleneck – not because teams are doing it wrong, but because the tools weren’t designed for this pace.

Paul argues that traditional Infrastructure as Code won’t work with AI agents. It’s dominated by taste and principles, with no architectural constraints for agents to follow. Teams that build software with AI have learned this the hard way: architecture leads to stability, vibes lead to chaos. The same pattern applies to operations.

What we need is automation designed for agents as the primary consumer: transparent type systems they can introspect, extensible primitives they can compose, schemas that match the domain, inline validation, and coverage across the full operational lifecycle – not just provisioning.

In this talk, you’ll see live demos of AI agents building workflows from intent, discovering production state through typed models, and composing operations through versioned data. Paul will also discuss what this means for the SRE role: the evolution from operator to architect, from reactive to proactive, from tribal knowledge to encoded knowledge.

We’re excited to announce Henrik Edler as a speaker at Agentic Conf Hamburg on March 22nd!

About Henrik

Henrik Edler is Director of Revenue Technology & Operations at Statista, where he leads cross-functional teams building scalable growth infrastructure across Sales and Client Success. With 15+ years in enterprise technology leadership at companies like Johnson & Johnson and Beiersdorf, he’s spent his career at the intersection of agile delivery, platform architecture, and process design.

These days, Henrik focuses on embedding AI into operational workflows – using Claude Code not to write code, but to finally get project management and delivery right at scale.

You can follow Henrik on LinkedIn and his blog.

The Talk: Claude Code for everything except coding: The PM we’ve been looking for

Everyone talks about AI coding assistants. Henrik uses Claude Code to do everything except coding.

As a program lead managing 15+ projects, he kept hitting the same gaps: discussions that never became documented decisions, features kicked off without clear problem statements, inconsistent artifacts that teams struggled to pick up. The best practices were known – there just was never enough time to follow them consistently.

So Henrik built workflows that embed those best practices into the process itself. The AI acts as a facilitating scribe: it nudges you with the right questions, challenges incomplete inputs, and pushes you to understand what you’re actually trying to achieve before documenting anything. From project to epic to user story, the system guides you through structured creation – and the output is documentation that teams (and future AI agents) can actually work from.

In this talk, Henrik will share the real architecture: skill-based, template-driven workflows, parallel subagents for context without token explosion, and patterns that turn messy discussions into solid work packages. He’ll show what works, what failed, and why quality at scale requires discipline baked into the process – not heroic effort.

We’re excited to announce Henning Thies as a speaker at Agentic Conf Hamburg 2026 on March 22nd!

About Henning

Henning Thies is a Product Engineer and founder of an AI-powered Rails agency in Hamburg. With 15+ years of Rails experience, he builds MVPs and custom applications for clients – and manages his entire one-man business with the help of AI.

What makes Henning stand out: he doesn’t just use AI to write code. He’s built what he calls a Personal AI System (PAI) – a full business operating system powered by Claude Code that handles everything from strategic decisions to content creation.

You can follow Henning’s work on LinkedIn, his personal blog, and his agency site AI on Rails.

The Talk: Personal AI: Coding Agents Beyond Coding

Coding agents can do more than code – if you let them.

In this lightning talk, Henning will demo his Personal AI System and show how Claude Code goes far beyond writing code. Expect to see:

• AI-driven accountability – How his AI holds him to commitments and keeps his business on track
• Strategic documentation – How AI captures and maintains key business decisions
• Content & research – How AI creates LinkedIn posts and conducts market research

PAI isn’t a tool. It’s Henning’s digital co-founder. And at Agentic Conf Hamburg, he’ll show you how he built it.

The Workshop: What if building faster just means building the wrong thing faster?

AI makes execution faster than ever. But knowing which features to build? That’s the real bottleneck.

When building products and services, we face four fundamental risks: Will people even care? (Value risk.) Can they use it? (Usability risk.) Can we build it? (Feasibility risk.) And should we build it? (Business viability risk.) Speed only helps if you’re running in the right direction.

In this interactive workshop, Christoph will help you identify and de-risk assumptions in your current project. You’ll:

• Map your risks – What assumptions are you actually making in your projects right now?
• Learn the prototype taxonomy – Different types of prototypes for different risks (not everything needs code)
• Figure out where AI fits – When vibe-coding helps vs. when it’s the wrong tool
• Design experiments – In small groups, define what assumption needs testing, what the risk is, and what prototype would actually move you forward

You’ll leave with a practical framework and concrete first steps for making sure you’re building the right thing – before burning tokens and time on the wrong one.

The Talk: Stop Building Features. Build the Factory That Builds Them.

You’ve got your CLAUDE.md, your subagents, your custom skills. And it works. But every feature still starts with you – kicking off the agent, steering it, reviewing, course-correcting. You’ve optimized the tool. You haven’t automated the process.

Benedikt argues the real shift is indirection: instead of using an agent to build a feature, build a production line that builds features for you. Scripts, validation steps, orchestration – from ticket to pull request with minimal intervention. And it doesn’t stop at code. The factory writes tests, generates documentation, handles requirements engineering.

Two hard truths you’ll hear in this talk: you can’t copy someone else’s factory (it’s deeply coupled to your codebase and conventions), and when a new model drops, you rebuild it. That’s the new developer skill – not maintaining one perfect system, but rapidly creating factories for any situation.

No slides. Benedikt will open a real factory from a real client project and walk through how it’s built, how it runs, and why this is the path from AI-assisted to genuinely autonomous.

About Anastasia

Anastasia Karavdina comes from particle physics, where she was – in her own words – “completely spoiled by access to large amounts of data and the freedom to try out every hot ML algorithm.” The experiments she worked on, including those at the Large Hadron Collider, involved up to 2,500 researchers – giving her a deep appreciation for the software engineering practices that keep large-scale collaboration from descending into chaos.

Today, Anastasia is a Solution Architect at Vattenfall, where she drives AI initiatives across multiple levels and leads her team in implementing ML/AI-based solutions. In her free time, she mentors people transitioning into Data & AI careers.

You can follow Anastasia on LinkedIn and her website karavdina.com.

The Talk: AI Coding Assistants in Enterprises: threat or friend?

Everyone who has ever worked in a large company knows: adopting new tools isn’t just about the technology. Policy, guidelines, security measures – these are just a few of the obstacles standing between enterprise developers and the promise of AI-assisted coding.

In this talk, Anastasia will look at the reality of agentic coding adoption in enterprises. What are these tools actually being used for? What hurdles do teams face when rolling them out? And is it worth the effort?

Whether you’re an individual developer curious about enterprise constraints, or a leader trying to navigate AI adoption in your organization, this talk will give you a grounded perspective on where things stand – and where they’re heading.
