Of course, but IMO that’s the job of a codersoftware engineer, not an analyst.
We don’t employ any pure analysts, just good software engineers who can take reqs, come up with a good design and implement it well.
Exactly. And software engineering is a quite different discipline to coding. Coding is just writing down instructions in a manner the machine can understand. Software engineering is designing which instructions to write.
Often, and usually, the two are confused, mainly because our industry has built up this mystique of the ‘leet haxor coder’ who does it all. In the real world, apart from a few exceptions, they don’t and can’t. At least not well.
I’d love to employ software engineers and have them on my teams. But I get coders.
