You present your solutions to customers and stakeholders, process feedback, and defend well-founded technical choices. You don't code alone: AI is your daily pair-programming partner, and you know how to wield tools like GitHub Copilot to write cleaner code faster, catch bugs before they hatch, and spend your brainpower on the architecture decisions that actually need a human.
