Hey guys, I have an opportunity at my current job at a software company that I want to make sure to tackle it the right way. As for every software company right now, we are currently shifting a lot of responsibilities, closing departments and creating new ones based on AI. I work as a senior customer experience manager and our department was one of the ones that got closed down. I got transferred to a new department “AI Ops” which goal is to automate as much in our customer success department as possible. With that, I got access to Claude code and started “vibe coding” my first little tools. At first I was pretty sceptical but I gotta say I really like it. The “problem” is I have little to no experience in software development and I have the feeling that I need to be more precise with prompting CC to get the results that I want. Currently I just tell CC to create a tool that does XY and then I look into the result, but I want to be able to tell CC to create a tool that does XY with tech stack Z and so on. I have the feeling that being as precise as possible is the key. Do you guys have any tips for me on how I can dive deeper into software development without outright graduating and do you have tips on basic things I should learn so I can be more efficient? I really want to develop myself more into this kind of topics. Thanks a lot! submitted by /u/ChainInitial2606
