ENGINEERING
Automation & Robotics Engineer
With constant advances in computing, energy storage and materials, robots are beginning to move from simple to complex humanoid robots. A robotics engineer would be involved in every aspect of the design, development, testing and implementation of robotic systems. Looking to the future, robots will likely find a host of exciting business applications in the coming years, so the need for robotics engineers will continue to be in high demand.
Machine Learning Engineer
Machine learning engineers create machine learning models and retraining systems. It involves creating programs that enable machines to perform essential business functions. Machine learning algorithms will make predictions, test whether these predictions were accurate, and then optimise the algorithm to improve the accuracy of the prediction going forward. According to the BLS, demand for these professionals is expected to increase by 11% by 2024.
Civils Engineer
Civils engineering is likely to be in demand for the foreseeable future. Civil Engineers build the infrastructure on which the world runs. There are various branches of civil engineering which make it such a great field to be in, as there are a variety of areas to go into. The main civil engineering fields include: structural engineering, environment engineering, road/highway engineering and transportation engineering.
Chemical Engineers
Chemical Engineers apply the principles of chemistry, biology, physics and mathematics to solve problems that involve the production or use of chemicals, fuel, drugs and many other products. Chemical engineering is expected to grow 8% from 2016 to 2026.
5G Solutions Engineer
With 5G being a hot topic at the moment, 5G Solution Engineers are in high demand. With 5G expected to hit the market from this year onwards, companies are looking for engineers to help them create the networks designed to power more than just our smartphones but the growing portfolio of IoT devices.
