AI is raising the baseline of what engineers can produce, but faster code generation is only part of the change. At inDrive, we are redesigning hiring, AI-assisted workflows, developer education, platform architecture, and governance around a simple principle: AI can execute more work, but engineers must retain judgment and accountability. This means evaluating candidates with AI, earning autonomy workflow by workflow, building reusable AI skills, making internal platforms agent-accessible through MCP, and treating AI capacity as governed infrastructure rather than individual tooling.
