Top 10 Tech Jobs Emerging with the Emerging Technologies

Experts at the Institute for the Future say that about 85% of the jobs that today's college students will have in 2030 haven't actually been invented yet.

We’ll do our work differently, too, according to Dell.

In its future of work research, the company found that by 2030, 67% of business leaders expect to use new technologies to create equal opportunities by removing human bias in decision-making, 86% plan to use emerging technologies to improve workforce productivity, and 70% would welcome workers partnering with machines/robots to surpass their human limitations.

The scale of technological advancements we are currently undergoing, thanks to advances in AI, machine learning, robotics, and other technologies, has increased this pace of change tenfold, says McKinsey, adding that “we can expect to experience more progress in the next decade than in the past 100 years combined.”

New jobs are emerging

New jobs emerge all the time thanks to the advances in technology, and most recently, generative AI technologies have come to the fore.

But AI is just one area where new job titles are rapidly emerging. We can expect to see jobs for sentiment analysis, AI trainers, AI compliance managers and prediction analysers (among many others) emerge over the next few years.

There are other sectors in which new jobs will emerge, too.

As IoT, augmented or extended reality, the metaverse, and blockchain technologies intertwine and embed themselves increasingly into our everyday lives; recent research has identified 10 potential key job titles of the future. They are:

1. Chief automation officer (CAO)
2. Gamification marketing specialist
3. Metaverse research scientist
4. Metaverse storyteller
5. Cybersecurity threat attribution analyst
6. VR programmer
7. Human-machine matchmaker
8. AR journey builder
9. Data detective
10. Digital reputation defender
