Signals Berlin 2026

September 10–11

Kulturbrauerei, Berlin

Welcome reception September 9

Connecting SRE · AI · MLOps

One emerging community: engineers running AI systems in production, and engineers bringing AI into the ops loop.

Single track — single room — one conversation

250 curated seats. No parallel tracks, no tribes: everyone hears the same talks and argues about them in the same hallway.

Honest, technical, front-line

Two days of talks by practitioners about what actually breaks — and what reliability engineering means in the age of AI.
