Beginner’s Roadmap to AI-Enhanced Software Development with Java

About this event

Welcome to the JUG Oberpfalz Online Live Coding Sessions!

While our regular JUG meetups take place locally in German or English, these online sessions are always held in English so developers from around the world can join.

The session will be streamed live on YouTube and will also be available as a recording afterwards. No registration beyond Meetup is required.

Questions are highly encouraged! Whether you're an experienced AI user or simply curious, feel free to ask anything in the YouTube live chat. The discussion is what makes these sessions valuable.

This session is hosted by Johannes Rabauer.

Session Topic
AI can generate code in seconds. But what separates a useful AI assistant from a productive engineering teammate?

In this live session, we'll explore a practical workflow for AI enhanced software development. During the first hour, we'll walk through the AI Coding Guide and discuss how to choose the right tools, provide long term context, establish reusable workflows, and automate quality assurance.
We'll focus on building engineering systems instead of writing better prompts.
In the second hour, we'll put these ideas into practice by creating a minimal Java project from scratch. Rather than building a feature rich application, we'll create an AI ready development environment with project instructions, reusable AI skills, development tools, and a CI/CD pipeline that the AI can actively use.

The goal is to demonstrate how to transform a simple Java repository into a small software factory where AI can reliably contribute, verify its own work, and continuously improve the project.

What we'll do

  • Explore the AI Coding Guide
  • Discuss practical AI development workflows
  • Create a minimal Spring Boot project
  • Add project instructions and reusable AI skills
  • Connect AI to development tools
  • Build a CI/CD pipeline with automated quality checks
  • Show how AI can work effectively within this environment

Topics

  • AI Coding Guide

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about how DevFound's AI matching, resumes, and referrals work.

DevFound's AI Copilot ingests your profile, goals, and live job data to deliver curated matches in seconds. Every match includes a resume variant, suggested referrals, and interview prep so you can act immediately. The more feedback you provide, the sharper the Copilot becomes.

AI-led job searches shrink the hours spent sifting through boards and formatting resumes. DevFound pairs automation with your personal outreach, so you reserve energy for interviews and negotiation. Traditional networking still matters, but AI gives you a lift before you even send a message.

Modern AI roles expect comfort with production-grade code, data fluency, and practical ML tooling. The strongest candidates pair deep technical chops with storytelling—translating model impact to product, GTM, and exec partners. Continuous learning keeps you ahead as stacks evolve.

DevFound rewards active seekers. Keep your profile fresh, respond to match quality prompts, and enable alerts so you never miss a role. The AI prioritizes companies and teams that align with your feedback, accelerating both introductions and interview invites.

High-density tech hubs continue to host the deepest AI talent pools, yet distributed teams are catching up fast. Use DevFound filters to hone in on onsite, hybrid, or fully remote roles and watch openings expand across time zones.

DevFound aggregates thousands of remote AI openings and flags the nuances—core hours, async culture, and visa needs—up front. The Copilot also recommends how to position your distributed work experience so hiring managers know you can thrive on a remote team.
