While you code, the math skills you pointed out are the most important. But a developer job doesn't only involve sitting at a desk and typing stuff on your favourite editor. You have to communicate with other people, attend meetings, share your ideas, be able to understand the user requirements.
I sometimes read emails from other devs and while they're really good at coding they aren't able to express even simple concepts in a concise way. Or you look at their code and it works, but you can't understand what it is doing, so it is harder to maintain if the guy leaves. I don't like writing documentation, I guess nobody does, but it is necessary.
Communication skills are the one will help you move your career forward, more than technical knowledge.
Yes, I totally agree on the importance of communication! There is a lot more to being a good developer than writing code - maybe a topic for another blog post.
