The latest advances in technology benefit our lives and careers in many ways. Perhaps the most interesting aspect of living in such exciting times is that the technology-related jobs market is constantly evolving to reflect the new opportunities that arise.<\/p>\n

What are some of the best new careers in technology that simply didn\u2019t exist in the past or that have become far more widespread than before? The following are some of the jobs that have become far more common and seem certain to carry on growing in the near future.<\/p>\n

Blockchain Engineer\/Developer<\/h2>\n

This new industry has exploded in popularity in the last few years. Research carried out by The Block in 2019 showed that over\u00a040% of people working in the blockchain industry<\/a> were employed by crypto exchanges. However, many banks, governments, and other organisations are also starting to use this type of cutting-edge technology to improve their processes.<\/p>\n

There is a variety of types of roles in the industry, with blockchain engineer one of the most appealing. This is a job that involves creating or improving blockchain applications, with some of the main skills needed being web development, data architecture, and a cryptography background. One of the most interesting aspects of the blockchain industry just now is the lack of skilled workers ready to take on the growing number of roles becoming available.<\/p>\n

This is why blockchain training has become such a hot subject lately, and why it is one of the best-paying roles in the technology world. \u00a0Reports of the average UK salary vary, with a figure of around \u00a350,000 most commonly stated. In the US, a salary of $150,000 upwards is quoted as the average.<\/p>\n

Data Scientist<\/h2>\n

This is a job that involves bringing together and then analysing huge volumes of data, to improve the company\u2019s decision making. It requires a variety of skills, such as data visualisation, statistics, reporting, data mining, and communication. The overall aim is to gain valuable insights through a better understanding of large quantities of data.<\/p>\n

The reason that this role has come to the fore in recent times is that many businesses have identified the power and importance of workers with knowledge of big data in the modern business world<\/a>. The role of data has grown enormously in the last few years, as more sophisticated ways have been found to use it wisely.<\/p>\n

The top country in terms of numbers of data scientists being recruited is the US, followed by India in second place. This means that the average salary on offer in these countries is steadily increasing. Most major companies now have data scientists working for them, while even more modestly-sized firms can see benefits from doing this.<\/p>\n

Game Developer<\/h2>\n

The huge scale of the gaming industry can be seen in the fact that a 12% compound annual growth rate is expected between 2020 and 2025. The increasing importance of virtual reality and the blockchain are a couple of the main reasons why this is such a vibrant industry. In terms of video games, there are top companies located all over the world, such as Nintendo in Japan, Valve in the US, and Ubisoft in France.<\/p>\n

In 2017, it was noted that about 2,500 companies in this industry directly or indirectly supported 220,000 jobs in the US. Another area with interesting prospects is the casino games industry, with the online gambling market predicted to grow from $US58.9 billion in 2019 to over $66.5 billion in 2020 according to ResearchandMarkets.<\/p>\n

The VegasSlotsOnline site shows that top slots developers include names such as IGT<\/a>, Bally, Playtech, and Red Tiger. It is noted that they each have their brand style and create many new games each year. Some of these firms are based in the UK, the US, and Malta, while other locations for the biggest companies in this industry include Sweden, Costa Rica, and Estonia. As such, the location shouldn’t be a limiting factor.<\/p>\n

Platform Engineer<\/h2>\n

There is currently some debate over whether platform engineer is a completely new type of role, or if it is simply the type of job previously carried out by site reliability engineers in an infrastructure team. The truth is that it doesn\u2019t particularly matter, as it remains a highly attractive and challenging job with excellent salary prospects all over the world.<\/p>\n

Part of the reason for the lack of clarity mentioned earlier is that there are differing opinions on what these people do. The general scope of this role is to make it easier for end-users to get hold of the software the company provides, but the exact duties can vary widely according to the specific needs of each company.<\/p>\n

This can mean that the platform engineers control how they shift over to a new system, or how they roll out\u00a0a new application to their customer base. As with all of these roles, the experience and skills required by employers will vary according to their needs, but programming, research, and communication are three of the key areas to expect in just about any position of this type.<\/p>\n

As the business world continues to take advantage of the latest types of technology, we can look forward to more exciting opportunities, such as those above, appearing all over the planet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
