TokyoDev Talks Vol. 9: Building AI Agents / Financial Infrastructure at Global Scale
イベント説明
Join us for the ninth instalment of TokyoDev Talks, where we have presentations that cut across the stack from engineers working at some of the most interesting tech companies in Japan.
Note that attendance for this event is limited to software developers, those aspiring to become one, or working in an adjacent position (e.g. Product Managers, UI/UX Designers, Security Engineers, QA Engineers, etc). If you're unsure whether you're qualified to attend, please get in touch.
This event is being held at Tokyo Innovation Base (TiB). When attending it, you'll also need to complete the free registration process with TiB if you have not already done so. You are strongly encouraged to complete this in advance, as otherwise you'll need to complete it on site before you're allowed into the venue.
Agenda
18:30 〜 19:00 Doors open
Enjoy talking with the other participants before the presentations begin. Drinks and a light meal will be provided by TokyoDev.
19:00 〜 19:05 Opening - Paul McMahon
We'll kick things off by welcoming everyone and giving a short introduction of the event.
19:05 〜 19:30 From Chaos to Clarity: Building Production AI Agent That Actually Work
— Darren Loke
The AI agent ecosystem offers endless tools but no proven playbook, everyone's still figuring it out. I'll share our journey building AgentForward, from failed experiments to a platform now serving many users, including our breakthrough patterns for persistent memory and agent orchestration.
Darren Loke (AI Platform Architect at Money Forward Inc.)
Over 16 years in software engineering, I’ve helped teams turn ambitious ideas into production-ready systems. Recently, my work centers on building intelligent agent platforms that bring order to complexity.
19:40 〜 20:05 Building Financial Infrastructure at Global Scale: Loosely Coupled Federation of Multiple Ledgers — Kenji Nakamura
Alpaca runs a FinTech platform operating across multiple jurisdictions while still sharing core order management and account systems. To support this, we use a loosely coupled ledger federation pattern, maintaining independent ledger instances per jurisdiction (US, Japan, etc.) while relying on shared trading infrastructure.
This presentation will dive into the subledger/omnisub pattern that makes this possible. We'll explain how we used Redpanda to build an event-driven architecture that decouples communication between systems, and walk through the practical challenges we faced—from cross-ledger identity mapping and maintaining event-ordering consistency to implementing idempotent operations for financial reliability—along with the solutions we developed.
Kenji Nakamura (Director of Engineering at Alpaca)
Kenji Nakamura is a Tokyo-based engineering leader in Alpaca's New Markets division with deep experience in backend systems, large-scale infrastructure, and building high-performing engineering teams. He worked for startups in the San Francisco Bay Area for 2 decades. he served as a Principal Engineer at Nubank, a Brazilian financial technology company and the largest fintech bank in Latin America, and as CTO at Parkside, a U.S. fintech providing access to U.S. equities for global customers.
20:05 〜 20:45 Open Networking
