When asked about the most pressing challenges facing the industry, Pawar identified the increasing demand for developers who can do more than simply code. “Need for developers skilled in the latest technology.” - TechnoScore
He highlighted that as we move further into a year defined by hyper-intelligent AI systems and "edge-first" app architectures, there is a huge talent gap for developers skilled in the following domains:
- On-Device AI/ML: Moving beyond cloud-based processing to localized intelligence.
- Edge Computing: Reducing latency for real-time 5G applications.
- Zero-Trust Security: Building privacy from day one.
"We are seeing a paradox," he added. "While AI-assisted development is simplifying the coding process, the conceptual complexity of apps, like integrating IoT, 5G, and spatial computing, requires a level of expertise that the current talent pool is struggling to match." He also emphasized that even as AI builds the "basic" app, businesses must hire mobile app developers to oversee security architecture. Without human intervention, they risk deploying apps that are structurally sound but digitally defenseless.
