Abstract

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies is reshaping workplaces, workflows, and job roles. Job crafting, where employees modify their jobs to better fit their skills and preferences, becomes crucial in this dynamic context. This study examines how IT developers can leverage Generative AI (GenAI) to enhance job crafting. GenAI tools, like ChatGPT, can automate routine tasks, allowing developers to focus on high-value, creative activities. Despite its potential, little research explores how IT developers adopt GenAI for job crafting. This study aims to fill this gap by profiling developers inclined to use GenAI and identifying characteristics influencing their adoption. Factors such as age, gender, education, programming knowledge, online self-efficacy, privacy concerns, creativity, and openness to innovation are analyzed. The findings provide insights into developing support systems and training programs that enhance job satisfaction, productivity, and organizational performance in an increasingly automated work environment. The study concludes by proposing a theoretical framework to guide future research and practical applications in the integration of GenAI in job crafting for IT developers.
