Tech jobs may shift from traditional engineers to AI product and agent roles
The post argues that hiring should move away from classic titles like frontend, backend, and big-data engineer, and instead focus on roles such as AI product manager, enterprise FDE, and AI agent engineer.
It predicts that traditional R&D product roles will shrink as companies hire fewer human engineers, and says people looking for work should track hot AI-related job categories rather than old-school postings.
