The gismu list doesn't mention ``programmer'' or any related words.

You can use skami platu finti -- computer plan creator
or samplafi'i as a lujvo
I think plan is accurate. It could actually mean "planner of computers", not "plans that are computed". Maybe pruce platu "process plan"... but I don't know, that might be too much detail.

Oh, woops. I misread the definition of platu. The x1 is the person creating the plan. So you could infact use skami platu "computer planner".
But the meaning of tanrus is often ambiguous and up for contextual interpretation.
E.g. zgike tirna means "music type-of hear"
mi zgike tirna could be interpreted as "I hear music" OR "I am something musical which hears"/"musically hearing".
Hm.

How would you go about creating a new word for programmer?
When you create a lujvo you define precisely what it means.

Nice to see I predicted correctly. I'm not talking out of my arse afterall.
Btw, skami+platu would produce the word sampla
from
Gismu {skami}, with rafsi {sam}, glossing to {computer}:
x1 is a computer for purpose x2(cf. kanji, minji, pensi)
Gismu {platu}, with rafsi {pla}, glossing to {plan}:
x1 (agent) plans/designs/plots plan/arrangement/plot/[schematic] x2 for state/process x3[also invents/organizes; x2 design, scheme; the structure or layout of an object would be represented as a state in x3]; (cf. cartu)
So there you have it, the word for programmer is "sampla".

sampla being made from skami and platu doesn't really appeal to me. No way I'd guess what it is without knowing the words it's made of.
Interestingly, some cmavo have rafsi. E.g. I think you could have merko ja brito American or British, ja's rafsi is jar, so you could have a word merjarbrito "American or British".
