What Does the Future Developer Look Like? Rachel Laycock Has Some Answers


Listen Later

AI is changing everything: how we build software, modernize legacy systems, and even what it means to be a developer.

In this episode, Rachel Laycock, North American CTO at Thoughtworks, shares why modernization remains one of tech’s hardest challenges, how AI tools are accelerating progress, and what this all means for the next generation of engineers.

We explore why 70% of modernization projects fail, how AI-powered tools like Code Concise are tackling mainframes, and why learning agility—not coding—may define tomorrow’s most valuable tech talent.
