AI Engineer World's Fair 2026 — unofficial import demo

Most healthcare technology companies were built for a different era. Transitioning to an AI-native organization isn't just about adopting new tools — it requires rethinking culture, processes, and how teams work at every level. This talk draws on firsthand experience leading that transformation at a digital health company. We'll cover what it takes to foster an AI-first culture across departments, and go deep on the engineering side: adopting AI-assisted development practices, building shared AI infrastructure, and evolving the product development process to unlock 2–3x productivity gains. We'll also tackle the harder, less-discussed challenge — the mindset shift required to operate effectively in a domain that's changing faster than any playbook can keep up with. Whether you're just starting this journey or already mid-transition, you'll walk away with concrete lessons on what works, what doesn't, and how to build an organization that compounds on AI rather than just experiments with it.
