The AI boom is no longer just changing tools. It is changing the people, processes and expectations surrounding modern software development.
In this episode of Agents of Dev, Mitch Ashley and Brad Shimmin unpack how agentic software development is reshaping technology roles across the stack. As automation moves deeper into engineering workflows, developers are being asked to operate less as manual coders and more as orchestrators of systems, prompts, agents and outcomes.
The conversation examines Snowflake’s SnowWork, NVIDIA’s open-source AI initiatives and the expanding ecosystem of frameworks designed to speed adoption and reduce friction for engineering teams. These tools are not simply adding efficiency. They are redefining what software teams build, how quickly they ship and what skills matter most in the next phase of enterprise development.
As AI capabilities continue to mature, the future of software engineering will be defined by how effectively teams adapt to agentic workflows, incorporate new tooling and rethink the role of the developer in increasingly autonomous environments.
