Endava adopts AI coding assistant Codex, reducing analysis from weeks to hours
Crispy enough to crunch, soft enough to enjoy. A good bake.
Summary
Endava, a global software contracting firm, has adopted Amazon Codex (likely referring to Amazon CodeWhisperer or similar AI coding assistant) to transform its software delivery process. The company reports significant improvements in code quality and speed, reducing requirements analysis from weeks to hours. Endava now positions itself as an "agentic organization," where senior expertise is codified into AI agents that handle code production while engineers oversee the output. Joe Dunleavy, Endava's regional CTO for Europe, notes that the quality of output has increased exponentially as they shifted from producing code themselves to overseeing AI-generated code.
