Someone who programs. Less tautologically, someone who uses a computer to do something that takes computerless humans, say, O(nx) time and completes the task in significantly less than O(nx) time.

As for who I'd want to hire? Probably just the programmers who can do it correctly faster than most. Whether they're writing Python or hacking spreadsheets, they are programming a computer, and therefore, they are a programmer.
