"Industry experts recognize that AI is having a massive impact on software development. Research suggests that almost all developers now rely on AI tools, with many of the roles and responsibilities of these professionals at risk of being automated. At technology specialist Harness' recent Unscripted software development conference in London, five financial services business leaders explained how their firms are embracing AI. Here are their best-practice tips."
"said his organization is using the Open Policy Agent (OPA) engine, which streamlines policy management across the stack to boost security and auditing capabilities. "We're codifying all the policies, not in a way to block our developers, but almost like a copilot to nudge them in the right direction," he said. "We report and say, 'Hey, you might be doing something wrong here.' That approach is working well in our pilots, but we really want to push forward.""
""It doesn't work saying, 'Hey, let's add the regulation to the policy, let's create a manual process, and then let's check once a year whether people are doing this or not," he said. "So, we're going the other way around. When new regulations come in, we interpret them from a technology-first perspective.""
AI is reshaping software development and is widely used by developers, placing many roles and responsibilities at risk of automation. Financial services firms are embedding AI into engineering practices and governance to balance speed, compliance, and security. Organizations use engines like the Open Policy Agent to codify policies across the stack and provide developer-facing nudges rather than hard blocks. Teams implement reporting that flags potential issues and pilot these controls. Firms adopt a technology-first stance for new regulations, interpreting requirements via engineering solutions, and pursue cultural shifts toward platform engineering and agile transformation to accelerate compliant delivery.
