I think you've described the life at most software companies. You're not programming anymore, you're building solutions to meet business needs I think the only two places where I've actually spent most of my time writing code was in grad school (surprisingly) and when I was an intern at a web design agency where I was delegated a new client to churn out a new WordPress theme every 2-4 weeks

Interesting. Yeah it seems like this is the story with a lot of SDE roles. Funny you mention agency work because I've been considering trying that route. Maybe startups offer more pure coding too? But then of course that comes with tradeoffs as well, stress, wearing more hats, less financial stability, etc.
