Speaker: Romain Jourdan, Chief Technologist, AWS
AI is no longer just accelerating how we write code—it’s reshaping the entire software development lifecycle. As AI becomes a first-class participant in delivery, traditional role boundaries are dissolving. Product managers are building working prototypes. Developers are making architectural decisions alongside AI. QA engineers are contributing earlier, influencing design instead of validating it after the fact.
In this talk, we’ll introduce AI-DLC, a new way of thinking about software delivery built around three phases: Inception, Construction, and Operations. You’ll see how AI initiates the work, while humans remain firmly in control at the moments that matter most.
Drawing on Amazon’s real-world implementation, Romain will walk through:
- Adaptive workflows designed for enterprise-scale complexity
- The Plan–Execute pattern that preserves human oversight in AI-driven systems
- Why traditional sprints give way to “bolts” when development cycles compress from weeks to hours
Whether you’re a developer, product leader, architect, or CTO, this session will share practical lessons from teams already navigating this shift.
AI will transform your SDLC.
The real question is: will you shape that transformation—or react to it?
