They spend a lot of time thinking, planning, and writing special instructions called 'code' that computers understand. It is a very creative job where you get to build the future with technology! They work in lots of different places, like big tech companies, hospitals, universities, or even for the government, helping them use computers in the best way possible. They are always learning new things because technology changes all the time.
