AI is changing how software gets built - but most tools stop at code suggestions in the editor. In this foundational session, Kun Chen will introduce Rovo Dev as Atlassian’s answer to an AI‑native SDLC: an AI development teammate that’s woven through the entire software lifecycle, not bolted on to a single step.

You’ll get a first look at how Rovo Dev:

Acts as a context‑aware agent that understands your code, Jira issues, pull requests, and pipelines.
Shows up where developers already work - CLI, IDE, Jira, Bitbucket, and GitHub - to assist with planning, code generation, code review, and repetitive maintenance tasks.
Helps teams move from planning → code → review → deploy with less friction, higher quality, and better alignment to business goals.
We’ll frame Atlassian’s vision for an AI‑native SDLC, clarify what makes Rovo Dev different from “just another coding tool,” and preview how the rest of the week’s modules and labs deepen these concepts. You’ll leave with a clear image of Rovo Dev’s role in your toolchain and how it can transform the way your team ships software.
