Why this bootcamp

Most teams have adopted AI at exactly one point in the lifecycle: a developer typing in an editor with an autocomplete plugin. That is the smallest available win.

The larger one is everything around it — understanding a codebase nobody remembers writing, generating tests that actually cover the risk, doing impact analysis before a change, keeping documentation true, reviewing for security, planning a migration. These are the parts of engineering that consume the most time and where AI is least used.

This workshop is for experienced engineers who want to apply AI across the lifecycle deliberately, and to know where it helps, where it is a liability, and how to tell the difference. You will build an AI Software Engineer: a system that reads a real repository and answers real engineering questions about it.

Syllabus

Day by day

Day 1

AI across the lifecycle, and code intelligence

  • Where AI genuinely changes the SDLC, and where it quietly adds risk
  • Why autocomplete is the least valuable AI use in engineering
  • Requirements and product analysis with AI: turning tickets into specifications
  • Parsing a repository: ASTs, symbols, dependency graphs — structure before embeddings
  • Why naive RAG over source code performs badly, and what to do instead
  • Build: index a real repository so it can be queried
Day 2

Understanding, testing and securing a codebase

  • Architecture recovery: reconstruct the design of a system with no current documentation
  • Answer real questions — where is authentication handled, what calls this service, what breaks if I change this
  • Impact analysis and change planning before writing any code
  • Test generation that targets risk and edge cases rather than inflating coverage
  • AI-assisted security review, and its false-positive problem
  • Documentation and API references that stay true to the code
  • Build: an AI Engineering Assistant answering questions about your own repository
Day 3

Agents, evaluation and rolling it out to a team

  • Agent workflows for engineering: plan, search code, read docs, query the database, generate, run tests
  • MCP and tool integration with your existing engineering systems
  • Human-in-the-loop: what an agent must never merge unreviewed
  • Evaluating AI engineering output — correctness, regressions, and measuring whether it actually helped
  • Guardrails, secrets, IP and what must never reach a third-party model
  • Cost, latency and where the spend goes on a real team
  • Build & deploy: an AI Software Engineer agent, plus an adoption plan for your team

Outcomes

What you'll be able to do

Before
After
We use Copilot and it autocompletes our code
→
We apply AI across analysis, testing, security, docs and migration
Nobody understands this legacy service any more
→
I can reconstruct its architecture and query how it behaves
AI writes tests that pad our coverage numbers
→
AI writes tests that target the risk we actually carry
We think AI makes us faster
→
We measure whether it does, and we know where it does not
Our AI policy is 'be careful'
→
We have explicit boundaries on IP, secrets and human review

Your instructor

Dr Ganesh

AI Product Engineer · Generative AI, AI Systems & Software Architecture

Dr Ganesh works on practical engineering problems involving generative AI, LLM applications, AI agents, RAG systems, knowledge graphs, software architecture, API systems, code intelligence, application modernisation and AI testing and validation.

This track comes directly from that work: applying AI to the software lifecycle itself. It covers practical engineering concepts and general industry knowledge, and does not expose proprietary client or employer intellectual property.

FAQ

Questions people ask

How is this different from the AI Product Engineering bootcamp?

That one is about building AI products for your users. This one is about applying AI to how your team builds software. Different audience, different outcome — some engineers do both.

Is this a Copilot or Cursor training?

No. Those tools appear, but the workshop is tool-agnostic and focuses on engineering workflows that outlast any single vendor.

Do I need AI experience?

No, but you do need real software engineering experience. This assumes you have worked on non-trivial systems.

Can we use our own codebase?

In the public batch we use open-source repositories. For in-house delivery we can work on your codebase under NDA — mention it in the enquiry.

Will you tell us AI can replace developers?

No. The consistent finding is the opposite: AI raises the value of engineers who understand systems deeply, and it is unreliable in the hands of those who do not.

What about our IP and secrets?

Day 3 covers this directly — what must never reach a third-party model, and how to structure workflows so it does not.

Will I get a certificate?

Yes — a Certificate of Completion with a verifiable link.

Can you run this for our engineering team?

Yes, this is the track most often delivered in-house. Use the enquiry form and mention your team size.
