How to Develop Software Engineering Skills in the Age of AI

Software engineering skill development requires slowing down. Generative AI has changed the landscape of skill development for software engineering. Tools and AI can accelerate outcomes, but they may not support skill development. Engineers must understand how systems work to learn things. Senior developers can coach juniors by using learning techniques.

A routine TLS 1.3 upgrade silently broke Route 53 health checks, causing a CDN to stop routing traffic to a healthy region while internal dashboards showed nothing wrong. This article examines why HA and resilience are different problems, how control-plane dependencies create invisible failure modes, and why recovery capability erodes without explicit ownership.
