Why the use of it as a replacement for the new developer’s talent is an error (Q&A)
By 2026 it is estimated that the lack of IT capabilities will affect nine out of 10 organizations, an issue that will only be exacerbated by the growing ‘silver tsunami’ of experienced retirement professionals.
This deficiency is a challenge for almost every organization, especially as IT professionals are required to introduce their company into the digital age and include new technology in the course of existing work.
With this loss of IT expertise, companies have begun to use artificial intelligence in an attempt to fill talent gaps, especially for smaller positions. We talked to Hadi Cham, director of the Apryse Solutions Engineering, who believes that confidence in this technology in developers’ roles is a mistake.
BN: Why are he using to replace a new developers’ problem?
HC: Returning to him has posed new challenges as some organizations move to replace roles usually filled by new talent with technology.
While this may seem like a short -term adjustment to maximize productivity and maintain low costs, over -reliance in it risks becoming a bandaid for a much greater issue. While it can provide the very necessary support at the moment by taking time to take time, repeated tasks, this approach will never really solve the skill gap. Instead, the investment in the development of these individuals and the use of it as a means to assist them in the Uppskill, rather than being replaced, will enable organizations to reap the long -term benefits of seasoned work.
BN: How can businesses build a strong foundation of new talent?
HC: Instead of bypassing the new talent and simply giving seasoned systems developers to integrate their workload, organizations can decide themselves for future success by developing new developers and giving them the opportunity to learn the skills that have more developers of the season.
The need for skilled programmers will always exist, no matter how much it progresses. In fact, while development teams increasingly embrace technology as an integral part of their daily processes, literacy will become an essential component of a developer’s skills.
With a narrow market of talent, the best way to improve your workforce is by investing in their professional development, teaching them the skills needed to grow.
A structured approach to skill development is essential. New developers should start with lower value tasks that help them build technical skills and confidence in a controlled environment. From there, they should begin to shade older engineers while working on more complex projects, allowing them to absorb the best practices, workflow and real -time problem solving approaches.
Once they have gained sufficient knowledge, the process should be returned – Senior Shadow Junior Developers engineers while getting increasingly complex tasks, providing guidance and corrections when needed. This approach provides a security network by ensuring that the new talent is being appropriately challenged, setting them up for long -term success rather than overcoming them very quickly.
By implementing a structured growth process and utilizing the experience of experienced professionals, organizations can create a sustainable talent pipeline that constantly develops strong, capable engineers.
BN: Can he be used to meet talent growth?
HC: While it should not be supported to fully take large -scale projects, it is still a strong method to support teams of all sizes. For smaller teams, they can automate time -consuming tasks, such as scanning weaknesses, to achieve more resources. For larger teams, it is a useful source to automate testing and analysis processes or to enable faster development cycles. He can also take on routine, repeated tasks for all developers who encounter them in their daily work. This may seem like regulating the coding process or problem -solving problems.
All developers need to learn how to cooperate with him and distinguish between the tasks that these solutions need to take and which their unique skills require. This is especially important for young developers who can improve their productivity and perform at higher levels when they have the opportunity to work with it. Junior Talent can use technology to automate basic code generation, or similar projects, releasing their time and allowing them to focus on new, more complex tasks.
However, teams have to be careful not to react too much to him as a crutch. While it can speed up processes and reduce repeated work, an excessive dependence on it can hinder critical skills and problem -solving skills, especially for new developers who are still building their technical foundations. If it becomes a predetermined solution for any challenge, developers may lose the ability to diagnose issues, optimize performance, or renew beyond the suggestions created by it. Instead of replacing human expertise, it must be seen as a tool that enhances the development of skills by ensuring that the essential competencies of engineering remain intact.
When developers can focus on higher advantage tasks, they are able to quickly develop new skills, rather than weighing with repeated projects. It is an asset that, when used appropriately, can help the teams get stronger together.
BN: Where do you see the role of the developing one in the coming years?
HC: In today’s world, it is easy to favor experienced professionals for large -scale projects and faint in him to handle the rest. While it will continue to be a valuable tool, people will always be the most important wealth in any organization. A strong, sustainable workforce requires a balance – using it for efficiency, experienced professionals for new expertise and talent for growth and continuity.
However, organizations must admit that every skilled professional begins somewhere. Supporting him at the expense of Junior Talent will only expand the skill gap in the long run, leaving teams without the next generation of experienced engineers. Instead of using it as a replacement, companies should invest in structured mentoring and skill development, ensuring that little talent is given the right opportunities to grow.
By promoting a culture that prioritizes the learning, mentoring and adoption of it, organizations can build teams that are not only productive today but also well prepared for the future.
