Better models do not eliminate the need for good agent design. At ODSC AI West 2026, @rajistics, Agentic AI Engineer at @OpenHandsDev, will lead the training “The Design of Coding Agents: A Hands-On Workshop on Harness Engineering.” Rajiv will break down four core harness levers that shape coding-agent performance: retrieval, memory, loops, and architecture. Attendees will test these ideas live using the open-source OpenHands harness and see how different design choices affect agent behavior. With experience across OpenHands, Contextual AI, Hugging Face, Snorkel, Snowflake, and DataRobot, Rajiv brings a practical view of what it takes to build coding agents that work beyond a demo. 👉 Join this AI for Software Developers training at ODSC AI West 2026:
