New York AI Engineers is a community for anyone passionate about the craft, impact, and future of engineering.Whether you’re a fullstack developer exploring LLMs, a data scientist testing new tools, or an AI engineer shipping production systems, you’ll find your people here.

Our mission is simple: build a space where engineers can share projects, ask questions, learn from each other, and form lasting connections across the NYC tech scene.

We make this real through a series of tech talks designed to spark honest conversations and meaningful relationships.

Our September gathering brought together engineers, data scientists, and founders from across the Bay Area to dive into the craft of AI engineering.

We heard insightful talks from:

  • Mauricio Wulfovich (ML Engineer, Eve) on building and iterating on applied ML systems.

  • Bhushan Sonawane (Staff ML Engineer, Qualcomm AI Hub) on scaling AI solutions and tackling real-world challenges.

  • Elvis Kahoro (AI Developer Advocate, Chalk) on empowering developers to build with AI at the application layer.

The night was full of candid discussions, technical deep-dives, and practical takeaways — all in the high-signal, no-fluff spirit that defines this community. Thanks to everyone who joined and contributed to another great evening of learning and connection in the SF AI engineering scene.
