Mastering Engineering Flow with Windsurf - Eashan Sinha, Windsurf

As experienced engineers, especially senior and staff engineers, our focus shifts towards complex problem-solving, architectural decisions, and mentoring. While AI tools promise productivity gains, Windsurf offers more than just code completion and chat assistance – it's an agentic IDE built to enhance engineering flow. This talk explores how experienced engineers can leverage Windsurf's deep contextual awareness, structured guidance, and automated workflows to tackle sophisticated and complex tasks. We'll demonstrate practical strategies for accelerating feature development, automating code maintenance and reviews, and ultimately freeing up cognitive load to focus on high-impact engineering challenges. Learn how to move beyond basic AI assistance and truly partner with Windsurf to excel in your role.
