That's the problem with the current state of the Software Development field: Most of the work (90% I'd pull out of my ass) can be done by "qualified technicians", what in Germany is called Berufsschule, in Mexico "Técnico Superior" [2] and in the US I think it may be the result of studying in a Community College.
The work of Software Engineers themselves, that should be doing real Engineering work. To prepare the ground and the "map" for the Technicians to build. It's the difference between an Architect (in an architecture firm) and their armies of interns or technicians (don't know the name in English). Or a Lawyer and also all the people that work for them (interns).
The thing is, that the Software/Computer/IT Engineer degree has been watered down since its inception for 40 years. I think mainly due to the huge demand that the Computing field has had for developers during this time.
