LLMs and your career
Summary
The post argues that building a software developer career in the era of LLMs hinges on maintaining a strong grasp of fundamentals and not treating code as a black box. It frames LLM-assisted coding as a faster, but still human-driven process, and emphasizes that top companies will continue to hire for deep understanding of how systems work (databases, servers, OS, compilers). The author encourages ongoing learning of core technologies and suggests seeking roles at firms that build foundational software.
