How to Become a Software Developer in 2026 (with Alex Panchenko) | EP #15

🔥What does it really take to become a software developer in 2026? In this clip, Alexandr Panchenko shares a bit of his unique journey. From his early life and first steps into development to changing career paths, learning the hard way, and eventually leading the development of Warmy.io, an AI-powered SaaS startup. We talk honestly about what makes developers stand out today, the real debate between degree vs experience, and how self-learning plays out in a world where AI can already write code. You’ll learn what junior developers must understand to stay relevant, how leadership naturally emerges in technical careers, and why strong developers often grow into decision-makers. Alex also shares lessons from the early days of AnyBiz and the birth of Warmy, mistakes that shaped his leadership style, and what he would tell his younger self if he were starting again today.
