Catherine Jue, co-founder at Kernel (https://www.kernel.sh/)

Kernel are building web agents in a crazy fast, open source way for them to be able to access the internet.

We're going to be talking about the technical, product, and business challenges that throw up something as ambitious as this. As we always do, we'll be getting to know the founder behind the idea, or the leader behind the idea.

-> Building a web browser agent and uncovering the use cases and capabilities

-> From millisecond speeds to cloud infrastructure at scale we break down some of the engineering challenges that exist at Kernel that you're trying to solve on a day-to-day basis.

-> The challenges in building a web browser agent and user / security adoption.

-> Introducing Managed Auth: a standardized way for agents to log in and stay logged in across the internet. (https://x.com/usekernel/status/2021581721280401709)

-> Who and how they are hiring.

Today I’m joined by Deductive AI. Sameer is an absolute powerhouse, one of the Founding Engineers at Databricks, spent 5 years at Meta building large scale services and now building Deductive AI.

Deductive are building self-healing, self-learning services. They are building reinforcement learning into their product offering to heal legacy (..even new code) being generated by AI.

• Sameer's background and being a Founding Engineer at Databricks

• Recognising an opportunity in reinforcement learning and self-healing / self-learning code and systems

• Building an AI-SRE

• Generating a course of action in ambiguous cases -> an open-ended engineering challenge that has never been seen before and planning for cases like this

• Bets that Deductive are placing in the next 6-12 months

This week I’m delighted to introduce Ayush Sharma, Founder and CEO of Warp.

Warp are building the next-gen, AI-native employee management platform for fast-growing companies.

We are diving into Warp’s journey, why they are tackling the employee management space and more importantly the how behind their journey

– it wouldn’t be an Enginears podcast if we aren’t breaking down the product and engineering challenges behind this.

- 2 years in, closed $18M Series A, alongside YC, Dropbox C-level, Amjad (Replit)

- crew of highly technical + product folks.

- Understanding the friction points of the payroll ecosystem and how Warp are re-building this with a highly-technical, AI-native approach. - Scale, performance and fault-tolerancy challenges.

- Ayush's product-first mindset and how he believes companies of 2025+ will build category defining companies.

- Meta points around AI/LLM's

There's a lot of rage in the AI-SRE space right now and I was keen to get some of the big players on the show to get under the hood of what they're building and the areas of focus. Playing the same game but approaches from different angles.

- Hacking and building with his co-founder pre "AI"
- Their thinking and anti-patterns behind building a traditional SaaS business and how they are so customer-obsessed.
- What it really takes to serve mission-critical services + names like NVIDIA.
- Building Rootly as an AI-first company to incubating their own research lab, to driving AI through sales/GTM.
