GTM Engineering Series Kickoff

AI Tinkerers Seattle is launching a new series dedicated to GTM Engineering: the technical discipline of building AI and automation to accelerate go-to-market and growth functions. This is the first meetup in the series, convening the builders who are actively shipping systems—from custom LLM-powered sales agents to automated content pipelines—to share architecture, trade-offs, and what broke.

This is a high-trust room for candid technical work. We prioritize live demos and deep implementation notes over abstract strategy or product pitches.

What to Expect

• Live Demos: Short, code-first presentations focused on GTM/Growth AI tools.
• Technical Q&A: Deep dives into implementation notes, agentic workflows, and stack decisions.
• Networking: Trade breakthroughs with vetted engineers, founders, and researchers.
• Food & Friends: Fuel the discussion with food and refreshments.

Call for Demos: GTM Engineering

We are seeking builders to present their work. This is a technical show-and-tell for builders, by builders, focused on how AI can be used to level up go-to-market and growth activities. We want to see your messy experiments, creative hacks, and technical discoveries in action. Your demo should answer: ‘How did you build this interesting GTM/Growth AI tool?’

If you are building GTM or growth systems that use AI, we want you on stage.

Registration & Curation

Entry is selective by design. We maintain a high signal environment by requiring demonstrable proof of hands-on work with AI for entry (email and at least one of Github, Twitter/X, or Linkedin). Space is strictly limited to 50 active builders.

📊 AI Tinkerers Seattle Stats

• Attendees: This elite community of 5,285 technical professionals consists of 84% AI/ML specialists and 74% full-stack infrastructure engineers. Representing tech giants like Microsoft, Amazon, and Meta, members actively build production-grade agentic workflows, LLMs, and cloud-native systems. Notably, over 30% of the membership are startup founders or CTOs, driving rapid, real-world AI implementation and collaborative open-source innovation.
• Companies Represented: Featuring tech giants like Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, Apple, and Google, alongside high-growth AI innovators and startups such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Anduril, Snowflake, Figma, OpenPipe, Fixie.ai, and more
• Demos: 611 demos were submitted and 266 were presented. The most exciting themes have clustered around agentic systems for real-world automation, and production-grade LLM engineering focused on reliability via evaluation, observability, and structured/typed outputs. Multimodal real-time experiences and RAG/memory/context architectures have been especially common, alongside security, privacy controls, and MCP-style tooling to unify agent capabilities.
