How OpenAI's Codex team builds software with agents

Codex is one of the most widely used coding agents in the world, and the team building it has had a front-row seat to how engineering organizations are changing as agents become part of the team. The shift isn't just about another AI coding tool: it's reshaping developer workflows, team structures, and how engineering leaders manage change at scale.
Join us for a live fireside chat between Rohan Varma, Product Lead for Codex at OpenAI, and Vinay Perneti, VP of Engineering at Augment Code.
Rohan leads the team building Codex from the inside, and works directly with the engineering leaders deploying it across some of the largest companies in the world. We'll cover both sides of the story: how the Codex team itself builds software with agents, and what Rohan is seeing from the leaders managing that transition on their own teams.
What we'll cover:
- How the Codex team builds software end to end, and how their engineering processes have shifted as agents have become part of the team
- How developer experience and team workflows are changing as agents take on more of the work across the SDLC, from planning through to production
- What Rohan is hearing from customers about how agents are reshaping the way engineering teams operate
- How engineering leaders are managing change as their teams adopt always-on agents, and which tactics are actually driving adoption
- A look at what we're building with Cosmos at Augment, and where this is all headed
Join an exclusive live conversation about the future of AI-native engineering, and a candid look at what's working, what isn't, and what's coming next.
