coder

Types for computers

A coder is someone who writes computer code—a programmer.

The term is slightly informal and often suggests hands-on work with actual code rather than higher-level software design or architecture: We need a coder who knows Python.

In casual usage, coder and programmer are interchangeable, though some distinguish coders as more junior or task-focused.
