The world of software engineering is undergoing a drastic and rapid transformation. And many developers are asking themselves if they will become obsolete very soon. This presentation tries to answer this a bit differently by asking: Do we still need the traditional split of specializations—like frontend, mobile, and backend developer? To understand that, it is worth explaining why this split happened in the first place. It will give us a clearer picture of the current situation and what skill sets are needed going forward. As Grady Booch recently noted, we have entered the 3rd Golden Age of Software Development. Join us to discuss how we got here and where we can go in this new era, focusing on why human-centric skills, such as system architecture and ethical judgment, are more critical than ever. Let's talk about how we got here and where we can go from here in the new era.
