Thu, Nov 19, 10:30 PMThis is a free event, but approval is required. Please apply through this link: https://luma.com/humans-in-the-loop-nov-19-2026 **AI agents are becoming the new front door to financial products, and most companies don’t own that interface. So how do you build something people can trust anyway?** Join us for an evening with Questrade’s engineering, product, and hiring leaders. You’ll hear candid talks and a presentation on what it takes to ship real software in the era of Agentic AI, including how we built a production MCP server enabling customers to use their own AI tools, with a human deterministically in the loop. **Why attend** * **See how we built it:** why we created an MCP server, and how granular authorization keeps customers in control. * **Go deep on the hard parts:** authentication and delegation for agents acting on a customer’s behalf, and how we design the experience when an agent sits between us and our customers. * **Learn how we measure it:** tool evals, performance at scale, and how we bring users up the trust ladder. * **Meet the humans behind it:** Questrade’s engineering, product, and AI leaders, plus the hiring managers and team members you’d work with. Hear how we hire for AI and ask them anything about the work and the teams building it.
