Codebases in enterprise organizations often span hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of lines of code. In many cases, changes must follow established patterns precisely, or risk introducing costly security or operational issues. A common challenge with AI coding tools is that they struggle at this scale: LLM context windows cover only a fraction of a large codebase, and output quality degrades the longer an agent runs.
Blitzy is an autonomous software development platform for the enterprise. It starts by understanding your entire codebase, building a knowledge graph that acts as a shared source of truth. From a well-defined spec that engineers review and approve, it orchestrates specialized agents that work in parallel to build, review, and test code autonomously at scale. The result is a pull request that engineers can then review and merge
Sid Pardeshi is the CTO and co-founder of Blitzy, and he previously worked at NVIDIA. In this episode, he joins Kevin Ball to discuss why large codebases break today’s coding agents, how a knowledge graph extends what models can reason about, how a reviewable plan keeps specialized agents aligned, and where autonomous software development is headed.

In recent years, the main impact of AI has been on the digital world, and most notably software engineering. However, its longer-term effect on the physical world may prove even more profound, reshaping how cars drive themselves, how factories run, and how robots move through homes and warehouses.
Software testing is widely understood as essential to building reliable systems, and it’s one of the hardest things to get right. A fundamental issue is that tests are good at confirming the behavior a team expects, but the most damaging failures tend to hide in the edge cases no one thought to check during development. Those blind spots are only growing as AI produces more code that no human has closely reviewed.
SED News is a monthly podcast from Software Engineering Daily where hosts Gregor Vand and Sean Falconer break down the biggest stories shaping software engineering, Silicon Valley, and the broader tech industry.
The popular story of Steve Jobs is that he co-founded Apple, was pushed out, wandered through a failed venture called NeXT, then returned to save the company and usher in the iPod and iPhone. That version is memorable, widely repeated, and, in an important sense, wrong. His years at NeXT are usually treated as a footnote, when they were among the most consequential of his life and career.
In the world of software security, there was historically a comfortable lag between the moment a vulnerability became public and the moment attackers could exploit it. This lag was often measured in months, but AI models can now read a vulnerability report and generate a working exploit almost instantly. They can scan the entire internet for exposed secrets at a scale no human team could match, and surface complex flaws that traditional tools missed for years. However, the same capabilities are just as available to defenders, and there is a case to be made that defenders hold the stronger hand.
