This retweet highlights a realistic recruiting observation: knowing only LangGraph/agent development is no longer enough.
The author believes the market will increasingly value these "boring but more lucrative" skills:
- Backend engineering
- System design
- MLOps
- Cloud deployment, especially the AWS ecosystem
- Reducing cloud bills and token costs
The conclusion is that the real bottleneck for companies isn't usually "whether they can build an agent," but whether they can deploy it stably, scalably, and cost-effectively.
