Tips and tricks we've picked up along the way.
AI is creating a new challenge for hiring teams. The traditional signals used to evaluate engineering talent are becoming less reliable. In this post, we explore how AI interview tools are reshaping technical hiring and how companies are rethinking what good evaluation looks like.
Lead Software Engineer
Many organizations are exploring how Generative AI chatbots could improve customer service and operational workflows. But once chatbots are introduced into real production workflows, the problem becomes much more complicated. Here's the architectural pattern that worked.

Case studies are high-value content, although they are challenging to produce consistently. This is where the value of GenAI appears. Instead of treating LLMs as standalone writers, we treat them like tools that help reduce cognitive load by architecting repeatable, efficient editorial workflows.

At a recent Olio Apps hackathon, teams were given a clear assignment: build a multiplayer game in one day, using a generative AI code assistant. One team's response became Breakin' the Louvre, a three-player heist game that reveals what happens when AI isn't just present, but required.

Over the course of a single day, multiple teams designed, built, and deployed playable games, many with multiplayer capabilities. This post recaps the demos, highlights the engineering patterns that emerged, and explains what we learned about AI-assisted development.

During a recent internal hackathon, our dev teams set out with a clear constraint: build a game that's playable, online, and real in a single day. By the end, they had shipped 6 online multiplayer games, with the winner being a multiplayer Minesweeper complete with spectators, chat, and real-time updates.

While vibe coding can get you quite far, the hardening process that makes an application secure, scalable, and production-ready still requires a disciplined software development lifecycle. Without that, organizations run into problems with security, stability, and compliance.
