AI is changing Software Engineering: What Tech Recruiters Have Got To Know
It should come as no surprise that the sector that is most exposed to the implications of generative artificial intelligence is the sector that built it. Software engineers were amongst the first to see a mainstreaming of this new class of technologies (GitHub Copilot) and were amongst the first to realise the Janus-like future we have before us: extraordinary gains in productivity vs existential risk of disintermediation!
One thing that software engineers realise is that GAI is going to change software engineering work. With that change will come a re-prioritisation of skills, and with that, a reorientation of what the most in-demand skills to hire might be. Today's topic of Brainfood Live on Air is going to be tech intensive review of what's going to change, and from the developers voice themselves, what tech recruiters have GOT TO KNOW.
- What is the sentiment in Software engineering about Generative AI?
- What percentage of software engineers currently use GAI?
- How does Copilot help individual software engineers?
- How does it impact the thinking of software engineering leaders?
- When we visualise the future engineering team in a GAI world, what does that look like?
- How do the required skills change?
- What do engineering managers look for when they next think about hiring for skills?
- How do we assess for them?
- How do developers think tech recruiting will change?
- How are tech recruiters going to win in this new future?
All this and more folks - essential one for anyone hiring for tech
We're on Friday 23rd June, 2pm BST, with Joshua Hoffman, VP of Engineering (Sharpist), Alla Pavlova, Recruiter (Riot Games), Iwan Gulenko, Founder (CoderFit) & Serban Constantinescu, (Random Tech Guy)

Ep211 is sponsored by our buddies CodeSignal
CodeSignal is how companies can identify the right candidates with the right skills – even if they don’t have the “right” profile. We provide everything from initial assessments to technical screens and onsite interviews.
For too long companies have spent too much time sifting through all the noise produced by traditional resumes, inconsistent interviews, and homegrown assessments when all they really want to know is how well this person can do the job.
