Morphology

noncoding = coding (transparent) = non + code + ing

Built by productive prefixation non- + 'coding' where 'coding' unambiguously means computer programming in this context.

Etymology

Noncoding is made of non- 'not' and coding 'writing computer instructions' or 'code'. So a noncoding job or task is one that does 'not' involve writing computer programs.
