Fireworks & Profound: Code & Cocktails

Inside the event

Join Fireworks and Profound on the rooftop, October 13th during AI Engineer for networking and Open Office Hours with Fireworks. No slides. No pitch. Just direct time with the people building Fireworks and the people using it, on a rooftop, with a cold drink in your hand, and even better company. Bring your code, your questions about Fireworks, Profound, or AI in general, and your spiciest takes, let's hear them. You aren't walking into a talk or a workshop. It's a room full of AI engineers and tech leads who are shipping specialized intelligence plus the Fireworks and Profound team. Come with whatever's on your mind: A training run that isn't behaving and you want a second pair of eyes on A prompt, harness, or agent loop you're stuck optimizing Questions about SFT, RFT, Evals, LLM-as-a-judge, or deploying to live endpoints A hot take on open vs. closed, routing, evals, or where the whole field is heading "Is training even worth it for my use case?" — bring your use case and we'll dig in If you want to walk out having actually fine-tuned, evaluated, and deployed a model on Fireworks that night, we can do that too. Laptops open, we'll pair with you. Location will be shared after registration is accepted.
