Agentic Engineering: Back in the Code is a free, full-day training program developed by the Tech Council of Australia for software engineers returning from parental or carer's leave. We're excited to announce that the program will open with a keynote from Jade Loyzaga, Senior Director of Engineering at Canva, who leads an organisation of more than 120 engineers across 13 teams and recently won the Glass Ceiling Award at the 2026 Women Leading Tech Awards. Jade will set the tone for the day with a talk on navigating career transitions and building confidence with agentic AI. The hands-on learning will be led by Paul Keen, VP of Engineering at Culture Amp, and Joris Dries, CTO of Resonate CX - both experienced engineering leaders who'll guide participants through eight hours of practical, applied work with agentic AI tools. Cohort 1 runs on 5 August in Sydney, hosted by Canva at 110 Kippax Street, Surry Hills. Make sure to secure your spot as places are limited.
