Beyond the Code: Vibe Coding, AI Agents, and Scaling Autonomy with Tomasz Maj of Odevo

In this episode of the Scrum.org Community Podcast, Dave West sits down with Tomasz Maj, Head of Product Ops at Odevo, to explore how a rapidly growing property management giant is navigating the AI revolution. Odevo faces a unique challenge: managing a massive, diverse portfolio across the northern hemisphere while balancing centralized scale with local autonomy.

Tomasz pulls back the curtain on "vibe coding"—the democratization of development that allows non-technical staff to build functional tools—and how Odevo balances this "wild west" of innovation with rigorous security and GitHub-backed governance.

Key topics include:

• The Operating Model of Diversity: Why Odevo chooses not to have a single "master platform" and how that fuels speed.
• Vibe Coding in the Wild: How accountants and maintenance teams are using AI to solve their own data problems.
• The 5-Step AI Engineer: Inside Odevo’s comprehensive training program, from prompting to agentic development.
• Governance vs. Innovation: How to implement "Module Zero" (legal, GDPR, and security) without killing the creative spirit.
