Build engine selection on Kubernetes infrastructure is currently managed globally at the account level via feature flags (CI_USE_BUILDX_ON_K8) combined with Docker Layer Caching (DLC) configurations. Users cannot select or switch between Kaniko and Buildx on an individual pipeline level.

Proposed Enhancement

Add a UI/YAML configuration option in the Build and Push step allowing developers to choose their preferred build engine (Kaniko or Buildx) per pipeline.
