The AI-Native Software Development Lifecycle: Why Traditional Software Development Just Died - And Your Blueprint to Rebuild Everything in 18 months
Traditional software development is dying. This is your blueprint to lead what comes next.
What if you could build software 5-10x faster—not by working harder, but by fundamentally changing how you build? What if your systems could learn, adapt, and evolve on their own? What if development costs became predictable and variable instead of fixed and spiraling?
This isn't speculation. It's happening now.
We're witnessing the biggest paradigm shift since waterfall to agile—except this one is faster, more disruptive, and carries higher stakes. Organizations that master AI-orchestrated development will dominate their industries. Those that don't will struggle to compete.
This book is your complete guide to leading that transformation.
The AI-Native Software Development Lifecycle delivers a comprehensive framework specifically for CTOs, VPs of Engineering, Software Architects, and Senior Developers ready to transform how their organizations build software.
What You'll
The Complete 6-Phase Framework — Discovery & Context Engineering, Prompt Architecture & Design, AI-Orchestrated Development, Intelligent Quality Engineering, Automated Deployment & Operations, and Continuous Learning & Evolution. Each phase includes detailed guidance, templates, and real-world examples.The 18-Month Transformation Roadmap — Specific milestones, role transitions, skill development paths, and change management strategies that actually work.New Economic Models — Shift development from unpredictable CapEx to controllable OpEx, with ROI frameworks and business case templates you can use immediately.Role Evolution Pathways — How developers become orchestrators, product managers become context engineers, and QA specialists become validation architects—with concrete skill-building guidance for each transition.Governance Frameworks — Enable speed rather than block it, ensuring quality and managing risk while letting teams move faster than ever before.This is not another book about AI "replacing" developers. It won't happen. And this isn't abstract theory about distant possibilities. This is a practical manual with actionable frameworks, detailed templates, and decision-making tools you can deploy immediately.
No fluff. No hype. Just the blueprint you need.
The window of opportunity is narrow. The gap between early adopters and traditional organizations is widening rapidly. Companies mastering AI-native development now are establishing advantages that late adopters will struggle to overcome.
The question isn't whether your organization will transform—it's whether you'll lead the transformation or follow others who moved first.

About the author
André Kaminski
13 books4 followersAndré Kaminski war der Sohn eines aus Polen stammenden jüdischen Psychiaters. Er wuchs in Zürich auf und studierte Geschichte an den Universitäten in Genf und Zürich. 1947 promovierte er in Zürich mit einer Arbeit zur Kirchengeschichte, die anschließende Habilitation erfolgte über ein Thema der Agrargeschichte. Seine Stelle als Privatdozent an der Universität Genf gab Kaminski 1950 auf und ging als überzeugter Sozialist nach Polen.
In Polen arbeitete Kaminski vor allem als Produzent und Dramaturg; er verfasste auch zahlreiche Theaterstücke und Drehbücher in polnischer Sprache. Zeitweise lebte er als Auslandskorrespondent in Marokko und Algerien.
1968 wurde er von Polen ausgebürgert; er ging nach Israel, kehrte allerdings 1969 in die Schweiz zurück. Dort lebte er in Zürich und war für das Schweizer Fernsehen tätig. Seine seit 1983 erschienenen, stark autobiografisch gefärbten erzählerischen Werke in deutscher Sprache waren ein großer Publikumserfolg und ermöglichten ihm ab 1986 eine unabhängige Existenz. 1989 heiratete er Doris Morf, eine Schweizer Politikerin und Schriftstellerin.
André Kaminski erhielt 1987 den Mara-Cassens-Preis „Der erste Roman“ und 1990 die Ehrengabe der Stadt Zürich.
