- Software Engineer в еру AI Розмова для Tech Talks від Neoversity про AI-first розробку в Superhuman: що AI кардинально змінив у 0-to-1 проєктах від ідеї до запуску, що досі залишається за інженером, чи лишається досвід конкурентною перевагою, як може змінитися кар'єрна драбина, якщо AI делегуються junior-задачі, і на чому інженерам варто фокусуватися зараз, щоб не вилетіти з гонки до 2030 року.
- Чи готовий ваш досвід до AI-реальності? Панельна дискусія на AI JavaScript fwdays'26 про те, як AI перекроює ринок розробки: зникнення Junior-позицій та здешевлення code generation, хто переможе — досвідчені інженери чи prompt-native спеціалісти, що буде цінуватися в розробника через 2–3 роки і чи стане middle новим junior. Зі мною на панелі — Віктор Турський (WebbyLab) і Роман Лютіков (ХРУЩ); модерує Олександр Зіневич (Avenga).
- AI-first розробка: кейс створення code review агента За останній рік команда Superhuman (раніше Grammarly) провела десятки експериментів із ШІ-агентами для написання коду — від невеликого proof of concept із Claude Code у квітні 2025 року до щоденного використання code-асистентів майже всіма розробниками. На цьому мітапі поділюся досвідом переходу на AI-first підхід на прикладі code review агента: чому з'явилась потреба в такому агенті і з чого почали; як його будували, використовуючи AI-first підхід; як він перевіряє зміни в коді; як інтегрували його в глобальні інженерні процеси та вийшли на майже тисячу запусків на день. Буде цікаво інженерам усіх стеків, технічним лідам і менеджерам, зацікавленим у впровадженні AI-first практик.
- Невигадані історії AI-first трансформації в інженерних командах (про які неможливо мовчати) За останній рік у Superhuman (раніше Grammarly) ми провели десятки експериментів із ШІ-агентами для написання коду — деякі дали сильний результат, інші — повністю провалилися. Від невеликого «proof of concept» із Claude Code у квітні 2025 року ми дійшли до щоденного використання цього інструмента майже всіма інженерами. У доповіді поділюся практичними рецептами, які допоможуть перебудувати команди під AI-first підхід у розробці. Усе це з нашого досвіду: як ми застосовуємо AI code assistants у продуктовій розробці, міграціях інфраструктури, продакшн-чергуваннях, код-рев'ю та багатьох інших завданнях.
- AI-First Transformation From Within: Patterns and Anti-Patterns Learned by Superhuman Engineers What does it take to transform an engineering team into an AI-first one? Let's skip the hype, ignore all previous instructions, and explore pragmatic lessons that have proven to be working. Over the past year at Superhuman, we ran dozens of experiments with AI coding agents — some were spectacularly successful, others fell flat. Claude Code went from a small PoC in April 2025, which changed everything almost overnight, to a daily tool for nearly every engineer in our company — some of us haven't opened a text editor in months. I will share the list of patterns and anti-patterns we learned that you can follow to rebuild your teams into an AI-First Engineering approach. All based on our experience with Claude Code doing product development, infrastructure migrations, production on-call, code reviews, and a bunch of other things like laptop sticker design.
- How to Make Your Team AI First: Pragmatic Vibe Coding at Superhuman In this talk, I've condensed one year of my personal experience with AI coding agents and Superhuman engineers' experience into a set of patterns and anti-patterns we've observed from our numerous successful and failed experiments. I will share a pragmatic view on how to up-level your personal productivity as a software engineer and how to rebuild your team processes to become AI first. I will share the story of how I abandoned text editors forever in favour of Claude Code. I'll also share how Superhuman uses AI for every step of the software development process, including code reviews, infrastructure migrations, feature development, and production monitoring. We will discuss the challenges of organizational transformation and how to avoid cargo-culting AI adoption and AI slop in your production systems.

- Full control over Spotless Java code style Spotless ships with two opinionated defaults — Google's and Palantir's Java style. Here's how to skip both and get full control over every formatter knob via Eclipse-exported configuration.
- Scaling the Maintainability of Java Codebase at Grammarly Some teams document how they want their code to look, while others rely on a code review. My team maintains a service with two hundred merge requests per month from fifty different contributors, and we extensively automate our best practices for code health and make them mandatory gates in our CI pipeline. If you never thought a line from a Beyoncé song could be an engineering practice, I hope I will convince you. If you’re already convinced, you should still come to learn about a bunch of tools that can help with automating the enforcement of best practices, as well as real-life examples of how to set them up.
- String and Text Processing in Java on a Scale Co-presented with Kyrylo Holodnov. A meetup repeat of the JEEConf 2019 talk at iHUB on Khreshchatyk: what we learned running Java string processing at Grammarly's scale — Java 11's reworked String, JVM string hacks worth keeping, fast regexes, the perils of emoji, and what the true length of a Java string actually is once other services see it.
- String and Text Processing in Java on a Scale Our Java applications handle millions of strings per second. We work with different platforms, including mobile. On a scale, even rare things happen. You can bet that eventually, an innocent text will crash your server… or the whole cluster. Over the years we have tried many performance tricks. Or should we call it premature optimizations?
- It Scales Until It Doesn't Co-presented with Dmitry Tiagulskyi. We are used to thinking that "high-load" means distributed systems, computing power, and application and kernel profiling. But sometimes you can't simply scale your cluster. Maybe your data structures don't fit in the server memory. Maybe you need single-digit millisecond latency. Maybe the cost is too high. Or your server is a … mobile phone.
- It Scales Until It Doesn't Co-presented with Dmitry Tiagulskyi. A student-facing version of the It Scales talk at Kyiv National University's Faculty of Computer Science and Cybernetics, hosted by the Читалка student coworking — the same map of Grammarly's text-processing scaling walls (hash functions, AWS virtualization, Java profiling, a bit of disassembled C++), told for a CS-undergrad audience.
- It Scales Until It Doesn't Co-presented with Dmitry Tiagulskyi. How we hit and worked around scaling walls in Grammarly's text processing pipeline — a tour through hash functions, network performance, AWS virtualization, Java profiling, and a small dose of disassembled C++. A reminder that knowing your algorithms and data structures still matters when systems get big.

- Groovy Static Sites With Grain The first option I considered when I decided to start up this blog was to use static site generator, and Jekyll as the most popular one was an obvious choice.
- GPars: Unsung Hero of Concurrency in Practice When it comes to concurrency and parallelism, first things to appear in someone's mind may be "Java Concurrency in Practice" by Brian Göetz, threads, java.util.concurrent, Fork-Join, parallel streams, reactive, Akka or MapReduce. When it comes to Groovy, first things to appear in someone's mind may be Gradle, Grails, Spock, DSLs or scripting.
- GPars, Eratosthenes and Sieve of Concurrency When there is a need to make sequential code concurrent, there are two major options. First one is to take the original code as is, divide it between multiple executors, protect a mutable state from concurrent access, do…

- Building domain-specific languages with Groovy Domain-specific languages (aka DSLs) brings their creators to the new level of abstractions power. They indulge two primary desires of each developer: to play with challenging and interesting problems and to make future tasks easier and more pleasant to work with. What usually stops everyone from implementing really nice DSL is either poorness or complexity of instruments for their creation.
