Stop Reviewing Schemas: How Intuit Made Developers Faster by Automating Governance - Oleks Bidiuk, Intuit

Wednesday May 20, 2026 12:00pm - 12:25pm PDT

Grand Ballroom I

Abstract: Schema governance shouldn’t grind development to a halt or burn out graph stewardship teams. As Intuit’s Supergraph ecosystem grew, our reliance on manual schema reviews created bottlenecks that slowed onboarding and frustrated developers. We knew we needed a better approach — so we built a hybrid governance model that puts Schema Co-Pilot directly into the developer workflow and transformed our "API Jedis" from gatekeepers into enablers.

In this talk, you’ll learn how we built real-time IDE linting, AI-powered schema analysis, and semantic “collision” detection to surface issues before code is even committed. With these tools in place, onboarding timelines shrank from weeks to days, and contributors now ship to the graph with speed and confidence.

Who should attend: Platform engineers, API architects, and engineering leaders responsible for GraphQL governance and developer experience.

Key takeaway: Governance isn’t about gatekeeping — it’s about building smart tools that help your teams move faster with confidence.
