IT professions: which direction to choose

IT professions are incredibly diverse and at GoMother we do our best to teach our students about the various aspects of these careers. Programming courses are an important part of our program, and coding lessons help young developers understand the basics of programming and develop their skills. Let’s consider some main directions in the IT field and related professions.

1. IT professions. Developer:

Developers are the primary architects of software. They use different programming languages and tools to create and maintain software applications. Developers can specialize in web development, mobile development, game development, or embedded systems programming. For web development, important languages are HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Python, Java, and C# are popular languages for general programming. Languages such as Swift for iOS and Kotlin for Android are used in the field of mobile application development. To develop games, you can learn languages such as C++ or C# using different frameworks and game engines such as Unity. Skills that are useful for developers include analytical thinking, the ability to work with a team, knowledge of algorithms and data structures, and the ability to solve problems and test your code. Therefore, knowledge of programming languages, algorithms, and data structures is important for success in this profession.

2. Tester:

Testers are responsible for checking the software for proper operation and finding bugs. They develop test scenarios, perform testing, and analyze results to ensure product quality. Testers must have a deep understanding of the software development process and the ability to identify bugs. Such specialists may use different programming languages for test automation, such as Java, Python, or C#. Knowledge of the basics of software testing, and the ability to create test cases and analyze test results are also important skills.

3. System Administrator:

System administrators are responsible for configuring, managing, and maintaining computer systems and networks. They keep servers running smoothly, configure network protocols, and ensure data security. System administrators must have an in-depth knowledge of hardware and operating systems. Such as Windows, Linux, or macOS. Additionally, knowledge of programming languages such as PowerShell or Bash can help automate routine tasks and scripts.

4. Project administration (Management):

There are many different project management roles in IT. Account managers interact with clients and manage projects, ensuring deadlines are met and client needs are met. The Scrum master is responsible for implementing the Scrum methodology and coordinating the work of the development team. The project manager is responsible for the planning, execution, and control of projects. The delivery manager is responsible for the efficient delivery of solutions to customers. The program manager or Site manager is involved in project portfolio management and budget compliance. Project management requires communication skills, team leadership, and knowledge of project management methodologies such as Scrum or Agile. Additionally, for the role of an account manager, the skills of managing interactions with customers and understanding their needs are important. It is important for a Scrum master to know the Scrum process and to be able to facilitate the effective work of the development team.
