Sorry to say, but it’s no different now than before in terms of skills and keeping up with “deep knowledge” to be successful in the way described above. Sure, things move quicker now… but pace of change was never the challenge for good vs. bad engineers. The good ones easily keep up now, and the bad ones still existed when pace of change was slower. In my experience it’s more about people’s willingness to invest in deep understanding. Bad engineers generally just don’t care to learn their stack deeply.
