AI is no longer just assisting developers.
It’s starting to collaborate with them.

At DevTalks Romania 2026, Teodora Musatoiu explored how AI is reshaping modern software development, from copilots and coding assistants to more advanced agentic systems integrated directly into engineering workflows.
One important takeaway?
The future of software development will be defined not only by how we build with AI, but by how effectively humans and AI systems learn to work together.

Thank you, Erika Dietrick, for bringing one of the most thought-provoking conversations of the day to the Cybersecurity Stage at DevTalks Romania 2026.

As AI continues to transform the way software is built, "The Rise of Vibe Coding & Its Impact on Software Security" challenged us to think beyond productivity gains and explore an equally important question: how do we maintain security in a world where more people than ever can create software?

Kudos to You!

Building mobile products at scale means balancing performance, architecture, user experience, and constant innovation.
And Google brought exactly these conversations to the Mobile Stage at DevTalks Romania 2026.

As the Mobile Stage Partner for 2026, Google opened the day with Nicole McWilliams, Engineering Director at Google, setting the stage for discussions around modern mobile engineering and large-scale product development.

Later on, Andrei Timofticiuc, Staff Software Engineer at Google, explored one of the most complex mobile engineering challenges in “Threading the needle: Shipping two mobile applications into one binary”.

We’re proud to have Google once again as the Mobile Stage Partner at DevTalks Romania 2026 and grateful for the trust, collaboration, and shared passion for technology throughout the years.

Thank you, PPC Romania, for supporting DevTalks Romania 2026 as the Power Tech Area Partner and for bringing impactful engineering stories closer to our community.

As the Power Tech Area Partner, PPC Romania showcased how data engineering can directly impact critical national systems through “Building a Unified Metering Data Platform at PPC Romania”.
During the session, Anda Spataru and Diana Rusu explored the engineering challenges behind building a unified metering platform capable of delivering near real-time readings across Romania’s energy ecosystem.

🚩 One important takeaway stood out:Behind every real-time system are strong data foundations, resilient engineering practices, and teams capable of turning complexity into reliability.

[@DevTalksRo @DevTalksRo]

Kudos to Anders Lybecker for bringing one of the most honest conversations about AI-driven software engineering to the AI & Big Data Stage at DevTalks Romania 2026.

Through “From Code Scarcity to Code Abundance”, Anders explored a major shift happening across engineering organizations today: writing code is becoming easier, but maintaining quality, coherence, and architectural alignment is becoming harder than ever.

One of the biggest takeaways? The bottleneck is no longer generating code. It’s building systems teams can still understand, maintain, and evolve together.

[@DevTalksRo @DevTalksRo]

Kudos to Piotr Wicherski for bringing a realistic and much-needed perspective on AI-powered testing to DevTalks Romania 2026.

In “AI in Mobile QA, worth it?”, Piotr explored the growing wave of AI tools entering the testing space and asked an important question many teams are already facing: how much of it is truly useful, and how much is just hype?

One of the strongest takeaways? AI tools can accelerate testing workflows, but critical thinking and strong QA practices still make the real difference.

[@DevTalksRo @DevTalksRo]

Wow, what a crowd! Victor Rentea never dissapoints!

The game is changing and Victor Rentea brought one of the most honest perspectives on that shift to the Java Stage at DevTalks Romania 2026.

In “AI-Augmented Engineering”, Victor explored what happens when AI stops being a trend and becomes part of everyday software engineering workflows. From prompt and context engineering to agent orchestration and the rapidly growing MCP ecosystem, the session offered a practical look into the new skills developers need to adapt, stay relevant, and build alongside AI systems.

Kudos to you, Victor!
