These Innovative Tech Sectors Have Great Career And Salary Prospects

If you solely relied on the headlines currently surrounding the tech industry, you could be forgiven for thinking the entire sector is in dire straits.

Scratch beneath the surface however and the opposite is true—not all tech jobs are equally susceptible to layoffs, especially when it comes to the fields of artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain technology and the cloud and as such, developers and engineers are still in high demand.

Take DevOps as the perfect example: the increasing requirement for teams of developers tasked with evolving software means the sector is expected to grow to approximately $29.57 billion by 2028.

Blockchain

Valued at $7.18 billion in 2022, blockchain is set to grow $163.83 billion by 2029, exhibiting a CAGR of 56.3% thanks to its mass adoption across a number of sectors.

While blockchain first rose to prominence with regard to cryptocurrency, its technology has been adopted in the wider finance realm with traditional banks and fintech entities now using it to power payments, remittances, digital identity and asset management.

Decentralized currency will also be the backbone of Web3.0 and blockchain, which will enable secure and transparent peer-to-peer transactions without the need for a broker, will facilitate it.

And with cyber attacks increasingly posing a threat to data security, the healthcare sector is also relying on blockchain technology to secure medical records, meanwhile global governments are turning to it for voting systems, land registry and identity management.

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) has more than doubled globally since 2017 to 2022, according to a state of AI report from McKinsey, and thanks to the launch of ChatGPT, its ability to automate, simplify and streamline has entered mainstream consciousness.

The level of investment has increased too with the global AI market expected to reach $232 billion by 2025.

All of these factors equate job opportunities. In fact, according to the International Federation of Robotics, there has been a 14% increase year-on-year in the number of automated jobs and figures from the World Economic Forum indicate that the rapid growth of AI will create another 95 million high-paying jobs by 2025.
