Infosys has announced a new collaboration with US-based AI firm Cognition to deploy Devin, an autonomous software engineering system, across its global engineering operations and client projects. The move reflects Infosys’ growing focus on using advanced AI tools to support complex enterprise software development.
The partnership brings together Cognition’s agent-driven AI technology and Infosys Topaz Fabric, a multi-layered AI services framework that connects infrastructure, data, applications, models, and workflows into a single working environment. By combining these systems, Infosys aims to simplify how large software projects are built, maintained, and modernised.
How Infosys and Cognition Are Redefining Enterprise Software Engineering with Agentic AI
According to Infosys, the collaboration is expected to help engineering teams work more efficiently while managing increasingly complicated systems. Instead of relying solely on conventional development cycles, the company is turning to autonomous tools that can assist engineers throughout different stages of software creation.
Infosys disclosed that Devin has already been used internally for the past six months. During this period, engineering teams observed smoother workflows and improvements in handling repetitive development tasks, particularly in older and heavily customised systems.
Under the agreement, Devin will be integrated into Infosys’ internal engineering teams and embedded within its client delivery models. In select cases, the AI software engineer will be deployed directly within customer engineering environments, depending on business needs and security requirements.
The two companies also plan to jointly develop shared engineering frameworks and training programmes aimed at supporting adoption across industries. The focus, Infosys said, goes beyond automation and looks at easing the burden of large-scale modernisation, especially where technical debt has accumulated over time.
Infosys added that the combined use of Topaz Fabric and Devin will support the creation of virtual engineering resources capable of managing demanding production and maintenance work. These AI-driven systems are expected to assist with brownfield engineering tasks and long-term transformation initiatives.
Alongside this, industry-specific solutions and AI-native modernisation blueprints will be developed to ensure secure and enterprise-ready deployment. Infosys’ Financial Services practice is leading the first phase of joint client engagements, covering sectors such as banking, payments, capital markets, insurance, and wealth management.
Commenting on the partnership, Cognition founder and CEO Scott Wu said the collaboration would help extend autonomous engineering capabilities into some of the most complex enterprise environments. He noted that Infosys’ engineering approach aligns closely with Cognition’s goal of reshaping how modern software is built and maintained.
Wu added that the integration of Infosys Topaz Fabric with Devin offers flexibility ranging from real-time developer assistance to fully autonomous engineering execution. He also pointed out that Infosys is among the first large digital services firms to deploy agent-based AI tools at this level.
Infosys CEO and Managing Director Salil Parekh described the partnership as an important step in helping enterprises realise practical value from AI. He said that combining Cognition’s autonomous engineering capabilities with Infosys’ industry experience creates a strong and differentiated offering for global clients.
Parekh further noted that Infosys Topaz Fabric will play a central role in supporting modernisation and innovation efforts, enabling enterprises to move forward with clearer direction and measurable outcomes as AI becomes more deeply embedded in software engineering.
