In The Loop 007: Agents Across Platforms

Agents Across Platforms The way we write code is fundamentally changing. AI coding tools have moved beyond autocomplete—they're now capable collaborators that are reshaping how founding engineers work. This session we'll be joined by two founding engineers for a group discussion on how they've integrated agentic coding into their daily workflows. Come share how you work today, explore ways to level up your own workflow, and map out what you're going to try next. Who's presenting About Your Host Arjun Kannan, Co-Founder at Residesk, which helps real estate owners make sense of what residents stay and pay for by texting with millions of renters and understanding what they're actually saying. Previously, he was CTO and CPO at Climb Credit, where he built ML-driven financing products that helped over 10,000 people change careers and improve their earnings. He started his career at BlackRock, building analytics that helped investors make sense of data across ~$2T in assets. Randy Brown, Founder of Scout, former CTO at Jopwell (YC S15, a16z-backed), and creator of the Founding Engineer Circle community in San Francisco. Randy brings together technical talent through events, workshops, and a private network that helps engineers thrive in early-stage startups. They are both founding engineers turned founders who use agentic coding daily to ship products serving real customers. Having led engineering teams through the 0-to-1 journey and learned to code in "the before times," they bring a unique perspective on what engineering skills remain timeless versus which areas are ripe for modernization. They'll share insights on navigating this transition—what to hold onto, what to let go of, and how to build the intuition for knowing the difference. What We'll Cover Ethan and Andrew will walk through how they've actually integrated agentic coding into their daily workflows—not a scripted demo, but a real conversation about what's working, what isn't, and where they're still figuring things out. Expect a group discussion format: plenty of room to ask questions, trade notes, and dig into the details that matter to your own workflow, alongside a room full of other engineers building with these same tools. Schedule Whether you're skeptical, curious, or already knee-deep in Claude/Cursor/Copilot, come learn alongside other founding engineers navigating this shift together. You'll leave with practical skills, new perspectives, and connections with other founding engineers facing similar challenges. This is one of a recurring series of technical workshops. As the landscape continues to evolve rapidly, we'll keep convening to learn together and stay ahead of what's next. About Scout: Scout is a career copilot that creates the connections, community, and knowledge to accelerate your startup career. Sponsored by Cursor - We're excited to host this workshop at Cursor's San Francisco offices. As the team building one of the leading agentic coding tools, they're the perfect partners for this deep dive into modern development workflows.
