Sirota: Zero out of hundreds of CTOs believe AI will replace engineers
“And across hundreds of CTOs, the answer has been zero. No one thinks it's actually going to replace.”
Sirota: AI up-levels junior engineers while seniors shift to architecture
“The junior mid-level engineers are able to be a lot more efficient, feel like they're able to actually learn by having the AI suggest code. So I'm seeing it a little bit more of the opposite that it's actually Up-leveling a lot of the mid-level engineers, the …”
Sirota: Tech companies see 95% fake applications among 5,000 applicants
“It's a really hard challenge, and we're seeing that today with many of our companies complaining that they're getting 5000 applicants, but then when they start sifting through, they realize that 95% of them are fake, and so they're getting fake resumes, fake a…”
Sirota: Companies unknowingly hire remote engineers logging in from China
“We've seen many companies hire folks and then all of a sudden that engineer's logging in from China Or from other markets.”
Sirota: Traditional IT outsourcers profit from black-box margins and engineer disempowerment
“The problem is their incentive is to charge a company as most as possible and pay the people as least as possible. And that's their black box margin. And so they literally sell engineers on a rate card. So there's no agency of the engineer to decide what they …”
Sirota: US Tech Talent Deficit Inevitably Forces Global Hiring Shift
“The challenge we still face in the U S is the deficit of technical talent relative to how much demand is growing. And I think, you know, the U S has been the innovation hub. We're increasing demand, increasing capital investment. We're seeing all different typ…”
Sirota: US historically averages four open jobs per backend engineer
“Historically there's been about four open jobs for every one back in engineer in the US.”
Sirota: Non-tech giants like Nike and CVS drive US engineering demand
“JP Morgan's a good example. Used to outsource a lot of their technology. Today, they're hiring thousands of engineers in the US. You have companies like Nike hiring a thousand engineers, CVS, thousands of engineers. So non-traditional tech has moved in to real…”
Sirota: System Interdependencies Prevent Fully Autonomous AI Software Engineering
“And I think at least the companies that we're working with, there are so many interdependencies when it comes to the systems that they're building. So in a very small subset of code, it can help and aid in how to, you know, finish a complete and end point. But…”
Sirota: Companies return to live coding as automated screening fails
“A lot of that is now breaking down and failing, and so a lot of companies are going back to actually coding with people live to make sure that they're good.”
Sirota: High-Skill Work Is Rapidly Globalizing Like Manufacturing Did
“I think we're going to see this trend of much more of a globalized workforce. You know, I think we saw kind of globalization happen at the manufacturing low skill level, and I think we're starting to see that in pretty quick manner at high skill level.”
Sirota: Tech companies increasingly use contract-to-hire models for global talent
“That's the big trend right now. It's basically this try before you buy for talent, go into a market, prove that it's good, very low risk. When you think about contracting, our customers tend to see that they never want these engineers to leave them. They'll co…”
Sirota: Big Tech Global Hubs Are Training International Engineering Ecosystems
“It's compounded by the fact that a lot of the best US companies have had to go to different markets, and so not only is the talent there, but then they're grooming them. So you've got Google offices all over, you've got Amazon offices all over, and so that is …”
