But today, AI coding tools like GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Claude Code are changing how software is built — and who gets hired.

So the big question is: Is software engineering still a good career in the age of AI?

In this episode of Career Blueprint, Carey O’Connor breaks down how artificial intelligence is reshaping software engineering and discusses software engineering jobs today with Mustafa Ali.

Mustafa leads Twilio’s self-service and product-led growth initiatives and brings a unique perspective as both a trained engineer and strategic operator. Together, they explore:

✔ How AI coding assistants are changing daily engineering work
✔ Whether “vibe coding” can replace traditional coding skills
✔ How AI is impacting hiring and entry-level roles
✔ The real skills future engineers need
✔ How students should invest 5 hours a week to stay competitive
✔ What Mustafa would do differently if starting in today’s AI era

This episode goes beyond headlines and fear-based job lists. Instead, it explains how software engineering actually works, why coding is only part of the job, and what still makes human engineers essential — even as AI writes more of the code.

Whether you’re a student considering computer science, a recent graduate struggling in today’s job market, or a working engineer trying to stay relevant, this episode will help you understand where the profession is headed — and how to adapt with confidence.

In this episode of Career Blueprint, we'll break down how computer vision, machine learning, and generative AI are reinventing everything from player scouting to game planning to in-game decision-making. 

You’ll discover how coaches now rely on AI-powered tools like automated video analysis, biometric tracking, and predictive modeling to evaluate talent, spot injury risks, analyze opponent tendencies, and simulate thousands of game scenarios before stepping onto the field. Whether it’s recruiting athletes with tools like Dartfish and Wyscout or testing “what-if” strategies using generative AI, data has become the new playbook, and the job of a coach will never be the same. 

We'll also explore what this means for future careers: Why AI literacy is becoming a core skill for coaches, how new hybrid roles are emerging, and why understanding analytics may soon matter as much as understanding the game itself. If you’re dreaming of working in pro sports — or you’re simply fascinated by how technology is changing the sidelines — this episode gives you the blueprint to stay future-ready.
