Episode 34 - Vibe Coding and the Future Engineer: How GenAI Is Rewriting the Rules

In this episode of the Moonpig Tech Podcast, hosts Ariella and Sam are joined by Peter (Head of AI) and Suche (VP of Engineering) to unpack one of the hottest trends in software right now: vibe coding. From rapid prototyping with LLMs to the blurred boundaries between product, design, and engineering, they explore what vibe coding really means—and what it doesn’t.

Tune in for a deep dive into:

• The spectrum from copilot-style augmentation to full black-box builds
• How vibe coding is changing the engineer’s toolkit—and mindset
• Real-world applications like Moonpig’s AI-driven sticker prototype
• The future of engineering as coordination, taste, and orchestration
• Why code correctness, architecture, and context still matter more than ever

Whether you’re skeptical, curious, or fully onboard with GenAI-driven development, this episode is a must-listen for anyone thinking about where engineering is headed next.
