Repetition vs. Judgment: What Makes a Software Engineer Valuable in the AI Era Monthly Session with Sunmonu Oluwole
Join us for an insightful session with Sunmonu Oluwole of Peerless as he explores one of the most pressing questions in modern software engineering: what truly makes an engineer valuable in the age of AI? As automation continues to take over repetitive coding tasks, this talk challenges the traditional emphasis on routine execution and shifts the focus toward higher-order thinking and decision-making.
In “Repetition vs. Judgment: What Makes a Software Engineer Valuable in the AI Era,” Sunmonu will break down how engineers can stay relevant by cultivating skills that machines struggle to replicate—critical thinking, problem framing, and sound technical judgment. Attendees will gain practical insights into how to evolve beyond writing code into becoming strategic contributors who can guide systems, teams, and products in an AI-driven world.
