Скачать или смотреть From 2 Years to 6 Months: How QAD's SVP of Engineering Uses Blitzy to Ship 3-5x Faster

Ron Davis, SVP of Product Engineering at QAD RedZone and Head of AI for QAD, joins Blitzy CRO Chris Harris to discuss how QAD is transforming their software development lifecycle with Blitzy. QAD RedZone, the #1 connected workforce solution for manufacturing, faced a critical challenge: converting a decade-old iOS enterprise application to Android to unlock European and international markets.

The traditional approach would have required 200 engineers and 2-3 years. Instead, Ron bet on an agentic approach with Blitzy.

In this conversation, Ron shares the real learning curve his team experienced, and how they achieved 3x velocity improvement in their initial deployment, with a clear path to 5x. He breaks down QAD's current tech stack (Blitzy + Claude Code + Cursor), explains why prompting at scale is fundamentally different from IDE-based tools, and offers practical advice for engineering leaders navigating AI-native development.

Key topics: agentic SDLC transformation, enterprise code conversion, AI in manufacturing software, change management for engineering teams, and why Ron is hiring more engineers (not fewer) as AI accelerates delivery.
