EPAM Systems, Inc, a leading digital and AI transformation services company, today announced a strategic partnership with Cursor, a leading AI-powered development platform, to accelerate enterprise adoption of generative AI engineering for clients. By combining EPAM’s proven expertise in large-scale technology implementation with Cursor’s demonstrated success in AI-Native coding solutions, the partnership enables organizations to adopt AI-Native workflows that streamline engineering, reduce time-to-value and deliver measurable business outcomes. Together, EPAM and Cursor are equipping clients to accelerate progress, empower developers and maintain a competitive edge.
Combined with EPAM’s 50,000+ engineering professionals globally, team-level maturity models, reference rulesets, curated context, training and productivity measurement, this partnership provides a comprehensive solution to accelerate clients’ transformation into AI-Native technology organizations.
“While most large enterprises have made some investment in AI coding tools, many teams struggle with full adoption and daily use,” said Dmitry Tovpeko, VP, AI-Native Engineering at EPAM. “In response, Cursor’s AI-Native integrated development environment (IDE) promotes disciplined use by incorporating rules, workflows and agentic behavior directly in the developer’s primary workspace.”
Specifically, EPAM empowers its clients to unlock the full potential of Cursor by supporting:
- Scaled AI-Native workflows – Deploying Cursor across thousands of developers and seamlessly integrating it into complex enterprise ecosystems,
- Access to frontier capabilities – Leveraging Cursor’s rapid integration of leading-edge AI models and features to position engineering teams at the forefront of innovation, and
- Accelerated adoption – Delivering training, change management and engineering excellence practices to help teams transition from legacy tools to AI-first environments with confidence.
“We share EPAM’s perspective: the teams that achieve exceptional results are those that rethink how they work, not just the tools they use,” said Michael Scherr, Head of Business Development at Cursor. “With EPAM’s deep enterprise delivery expertise and clear point of view on AI-Native SDLC, combined with our AI-Native IDE and agents, we’re helping global clients scale the unique and transformative potential of Cursor.”
To remain competitive, organizations must embrace AI-native approaches that drive productivity and sustainable transformation. Cursor’s rapid AI innovation and EPAM’s engineering DNA enable clients to adopt next-generation workflows — delivering measurable improvements in efficiency, adoption rates and return on investment. Together, EPAM and Cursor are redefining how software is built and equipping developers with industry-leading tools and methodologies.
