Sven Peters is an AI Evangelist at Atlassian, where he helps teams around the world understand how AI can transform the way people collaborate, build software, and create impact at scale. For more than 20 years, Sven has studied what makes high-performing teams work — from engineering culture and developer experience to agile leadership, distributed collaboration, and the future of AI-powered teamwork.
At Atlassian, Sven sits at the centre of one of the most important questions facing every modern organisation: how do teams move from individual AI experimentation to real, measurable team transformation? His work focuses not just on tools, but on the systems of work, culture, habits, and operating models that allow teams to use AI with confidence — reducing cognitive overload, improving collaboration, and helping people focus on the work that truly matters.
A former programmer, developer advocate, keynote speaker, and technology communicator, Sven brings rare credibility with both technical and business audiences. He has written code, led teams, built developer communities, and shared his experience with thousands of developers and leaders at conferences across 25+ countries. His work spans team culture, developer productivity, agile ways of working, DevOps, DevX, AI, and modern leadership.
Sven is also a highly experienced international speaker, having appeared at hundreds of events worldwide and produced major company keynotes for organisations including Atlassian and MongoDB. His strength is turning complex technology and organisational change into practical, engaging, and human-centred insights that leaders can actually apply.
For Webit 2026 Sofia, Sven brings an exceptionally timely perspective on the future of work in the AI era: how companies can redesign teamwork, engineering culture, and organisational execution so that AI becomes a force multiplier — not another layer of complexity. His insights will be especially valuable for senior executives, technology leaders, founders, and transformation teams seeking to build faster, smarter, and more adaptive organisations in the next decade.
