Just out of curiosity: Are you hiring only experienced developers? Or are you also hiring junior developers who are just getting started in the field?

Discussions here on HN about whether or not AI is a threat to developers’ jobs seem to suggest that experienced people maybe don’t have to worry, partly because so much of their work is not coding per se. I wonder, though, about people just starting out. I heard anecdotally a couple of weeks ago about an SV company that has stopped hiring junior developers because the work they used to do can be done much more quickly and cheaply with AI.

I am not a developer myself, but I worked for many years in translation, a field that also seems threatened by AI. LLMs can be powerful tools to assist skilled translators, but they might also be making it difficult for beginners to get started in the field.
