About this Talk

Breaking into tech has never been easy — but the rise of AI is rapidly changing what "entry-level" really means. Junior developers are now expected to understand broader architectures, work across multiple technologies, and deliver value faster than ever before. In this talk, I'll explore how AI is raising the bar, reshaping learning paths, and creating new challenges for less-experienced developers. We'll also discuss what this means for teams, hiring, and the future of developer growth.
