In this episode, Noah Peden, Head of Engineering at Iris AI, shares how his team is using Claude Code, AI-powered code review, and AI end-to-end testing to dramatically change their development workflow. Noah explains how Iris AI brought customer success managers into engineering as "forward deployed engineers," giving technically capable non-traditional engineers AI tools and guardrails that allow them to create production code while knowing when to escalate more complex work to traditional software engineers. We also explore the idea of the "second brain" for engineering leaders, how Slack and AI agents can become an integrated company operating system, and what happens when engineers are freed from smaller customer requests and can focus almost entirely on harder architectural problems
