Well this is honestly not really the software developers job. Software developers figure out how something should be build. This is indeed a creative process, though different to what is described. Developers don't figure out requirements. sometimes it's possible to use libraries, Frameworks, open source and no code solutions or even modern programming languages to make that easier. However in general still someone needs fairly deep knowledge of the relevant tool. You might as well call such a person a developer. Usually very little in the sense of making it easier is possible because the software doesn't exist in a vacuum and needs to be build on top of/interface with/integrate existing software/run on a specific server set up.
