scaffolder

Erects temporary frameworks

A scaffolder is a construction worker who erects and dismantles scaffolding—the temporary metal frameworks that allow workers to reach high parts of buildings.

The job requires physical strength and comfort with heights: The scaffolders had the frame up by noon.

In software development, a scaffolder is a tool that generates basic code structure automatically.
