Some guests make you want to close your laptop and go build something. Linda Mohamed is one of them. In this episode, Romain sits down with Linda — AWS Community Hero, User Group Leader, Chairwoman of the AWS Community DACH Association, and independent cloud consultant based in Vienna. Linda started as a Java developer in on-premises enterprise environments. Her first AWS touch point? Building an Alexa skill for a smart home product — discovering Lambda almost by accident, and never looking back. Today she's building multi-agent AI systems, running an AI-powered video pipeline with five media customers, and doing it all while being one of the most energetic and generous contributors in the AWS community. Discover Linda's journey from Java developer in telecom to cloud and AI consultant, conference-driven development as a forcing function to ship, building Otto — a multi-agent Slack bot using Crew AI, LoRA fine-tuning, and Amazon Bedrock Agent Core Runtime. Learn about the AI-powered video analysis pipeline she built to solve her own problem and ended up selling to five media customers, vibe coding vs spec-driven development and when each makes sense, and why Clean Code principles still apply when designing agent architectures.
