Engineering Quality & Safe AI

Software Development Workshops

Improve code quality, reduce technical debt, and use AI safely.

Your engineering team will gain practical proficiency in the internationally recognized standards of the Certified Scrum Developer, test-driven development, and clean architecture—combined with the safe use of AI tools. Deliver software faster without the risk of growing technical debt or unmaintainable codebases.

Why Software Development Workshops?

High-quality engineering is the foundation for fast and predictable product development.

AI tools generate code at an unprecedented pace—but when left unmonitored, they lead to a drastic increase in technical debt. Our workshops equip teams with proven frameworks and practices that ensure architectural stability.

01

Proficiency in TDD, Architecture, and Clean Code

We implement test-driven development and CI/CD practices that make code immediately verifiable and protect the system from creeping decay.

02

Secure Use of AI

We’ll show you how to safely use AI assistants and agents to support developers—without data leaks or “spaghetti code.”

03

Certified Scrum Developer (CSD) Standards

The program is based on the international Certified Scrum Developer (CSD) standards and enhances the maturity of the entire engineering team.

When does your organization need software development workshops?

Growing Technical Debt & Slowing Pace

Each new feature takes longer to develop, and bug fixes are taking up most of the engineering team’s capacity.

Lack of Test Automation & Fear of Releases

Production deployments cause anxiety because the lack of automated testing carries significant regression risks.

Uncontrolled & Unsafe Use of AI

Engineers copy and paste AI-generated code without conducting an architectural review or test validation—thereby introducing hidden errors.

Inconsistent engineering practices across teams

The lack of common standards for code and code reviews leads to conflicts and delays time-to-market.

Scope of Services: Software Development Workshops

What the Software Development Workshops Cover

  • Hands-on work with the client’s production code or with engineering katas developed in-house
  • Security in TDD, CI/CD, Test Automation, and Clean Architecture
  • Guidelines for the Safe Integration of AI Code Assistants
  • Preparation and the Path to Official Certification as a Certified Scrum Developer (CSD)

What the Software Development Workshops Do Not Cover

  • Theoretical lectures without hands-on programming and refactoring
  • Untested AI code generation without validation through unit tests
  • Generic, off-the-shelf slides that ignore the customer’s tech stack
  • Taking over ongoing application maintenance after the workshop

Recommendations and Real Results

“Hiring Klose Brothers to train and mentor our teams was one of the most productive decisions we’ve made at HelloFresh … I would hire them as trainers and coaches again in a heartbeat.”

Peter Caron, SVP of Engineering, Global SCM Tech, HelloFresh
