Who will be the senior engineers of 2036?

Năm 2025, tuyển dụng entry-level tech tại châu Âu giảm 3% trong khi toàn cầu tăng 14%, khiến nguồn nhân lực tương lai cho vị trí kỹ sư senior bị ảnh hưởng. AI đang thay thế công việc entry-level vốn là bước đệm để đào tạo chuyên môn, đe dọa thiếu hụt senior engineers trong thập kỷ tới. Tác giả đề xuất tận dụng cộng đồng open source (nơi châu Âu dẫn đầu về đóng góp CNCF và OpenInfra) như hệ thống đào tạo thực hành cho nhà phát triển mới vào nghề.

Nếu bạn đang tìm cách phát triển sự nghiệp từ junior lên senior trong ngành công nghệ, bài viết này sẽ giúp bạn hiểu cách chuyển đổi từ việc học theo quy trình truyền thống sang xây dựng kiến thức thông qua cộng đồng mở, đặc biệt là khi AI đang thay đổi cách đào tạo kỹ năng cơ bản.

The 5 Mandatory Soft Skills Engineers Must Have in the Age of AI

A senior cloud support engineer and technical interviewer argues that five soft skills remain essential for engineers in the AI era: communication that delivers, empathy and emotional intelligence, adaptability and a learning mindset, trust-building through productive disagreement, and values-driven ownership and judgment. Drawing on 1,200+ customer engagements and 24+ hiring loops, the author contends that while AI accelerates mechanical work, it cannot earn customer trust, navigate ambiguity, or demonstrate a track record of judgment under pressure — all of which still define career growth and hiring decisions.

The real reason SA graduates can’t get hired into tech jobs

South Africa has over 40,000 unfilled junior ICT roles despite thousands of graduates entering the market annually. The core problem is not a lack of qualifications but a shortage of work-ready talent — specifically, graduates who lack the confidence and practical experience to perform in real workplace environments. Research shows self-efficacy is a strong predictor of employability alongside hands-on experience. Work-integrated learning (WIL) is identified as the key mechanism to build that confidence through 'mastery experiences,' but only when programmes include structured mentorship, gradual progression, and meaningful feedback. A DigiLink pilot achieved a 90% absorption rate into permanent employment. The call to action is for employers, training providers, and policymakers to scale high-quality WIL as a strategic priority in South Africa's digital skills strategy.
