How AI is affecting this role
- ›A developer uses v0.dev to convert a Figma design for a 'Big Billion Days' sale landing page into deployable React code in 10 minutes.
- ›Using GitHub Copilot, the developer generates comprehensive Jest tests for a complex Razorpay webhook handler, covering edge cases for failed transactions.
- ›Cursor AI analyzes a legacy Magento codebase and refactors the inventory update logic into a modern API endpoint, significantly reducing technical debt.
Ways to survive
- ›Focus on system integration (connecting ERP, CRM, and Warehouse) where business logic is too complex for generic AI models to handle autonomously.
Ways to get ahead with AI
- ›Build internal AI tools for the marketing team using n8n and OpenAI, such as a workflow that auto-generates SEO product descriptions from supplier CSVs.
