AI-driven uncertainty spreads, expanding developers’ roles is key to change
Kim Hwan (김환), CTO of CJ Olive Young, said the key to adapting to uncertainty caused by AI is expanding developers’ roles beyond their specialties. Speaking at AWS Summit Seoul 2026, he said the retailer is hiring forward deployed engineers, setting up new teams and reshaping its organisation to speed decision-making. He said CJ Olive Young is building an AI-native development system on AWS and applying an AIDLC approach by combining AI with its SDLC.
