Since you’re not in a unique position, I can confidently state that your comparison of LLMs to jr developers seems unfounded. Today, LLMs produce code that is superior to junior developer code by an order of magnitude.

Notably, they demonstrate consistent syntax, clear separation of concerns, strong test coverage, organizational rigor, idiomatic API usage, and the ability to generate and maintain documentation, among other measurable qualities.

LLMs generally operate at a staff engineer level for a number of languages and ecosystems (including polyglot projects).
