Agile With AI

About this course

This course pairs pragmatic agile method with AI-assisted engineering practice. Across five modules you trace the historical arc from waterfall to agile, internalize the playground-vs-plant mental model, learn root-cause analysis via the five-whys habit, sharpen technical communication and demos, structure project management with the lightest possible artifacts (Trello and spreadsheets over heavy tools), and apply AI workflows — diagram prompt engineering, summarization with Claude, AI pair programming, AWS CodeWhisperer for Rust, Bedrock-backed serverless architectures, RAG with Bedrock Knowledge Bases, and local speech-to-text with whisper.cpp. By the end you can adapt agile to your team rather than the other way around, recognize the anti-patterns that turn ceremonies into theater, and integrate AI tooling into a development loop that ships rather than just demos. Pragmatic, opinionated, and grounded in named patterns rather than methodology cargo-cult.
