My company recently hired a Senior AI Engineer who claims to be a “vibe coder” and says he has not done much hands-on coding for more than a year. His day-to-day work appears to consist mainly of prompting AI tools, and his PRs are all Claude co-authored. I am not confident that he thoroughly reviews the generated changes himself; it often feels like he lets Claude drive the implementation. This makes me question what the actual criteria are for being an AI Engineer. Is it enough to understand some basic LLM concepts and know how to prompt effectively? I am also getting frustrated because I have to review his code from time to time, and I feel uncomfortable seeing him rely on Claude even for tasks like writing commits. submitted by /u/Teo0316
