What do you use your coding skills for at work?

Hi everyone,

I'm just wondering how people use their coding skills at work, i have been learning python over the last few months and i'm now looking for ways to more actively apply it on the job. I'm a S&T / HF / AM analyst but would also appreciate inputs from other parts of the industry...

I'm looking for some "real world" examples, any input would be much appreciated!

Thanks!
