Prompting a chatbot is fun. Building a system that uses language models to solve a real problem, end to end, is a different game entirely. That's what intelligent pipelines are about, and Nacho Codina, Engineer Manager at Howdy, stepped up to show how they're built.
From 'playing with an LLM' to building with one
There's a huge gap between throwing a prompt at a model and designing a pipeline where that model is a reliable piece inside a larger flow. Nacho's class hits that gap directly: how to go from experiment to system, thinking through inputs, outputs, errors, and everything that breaks when you connect it to the real world.
Why you should learn this now
Knowing how to integrate LLMs into products is no longer a nice-to-have. It's one of the fastest-rising skills in the market, and developers who master it have a real edge. Not because AI replaces the engineer, but because the engineer who knows how to orchestrate it punches well above their weight.
Learning is part of the job at Howdy
An Engineer Manager taking time to teach this to the team isn't a coincidence: at Howdy, we believe staying a step ahead is part of the work, not something you do on weekends. We invest in every developer's growth, with experienced people alongside them.
