Carreers in Information
Technology The phenomenal
growth that this industry is
witnessing has led to it being
recognised as one of the highly
paid industry says Shikha
Malhotra.
* What is Information Technology?
IT is short for Information Technology, a broad term covering
all aspects of managing and processing information. IT
professionals design, develop, support and manage computer
software, hardware, and networks. Today Computers have
not only assumed strategic importance in the corporate
world, they are being effectively used in other fields ranging
from Computer software used to write an online exam,
computer generated animation in a blockbuster movie,
ordering books over the Internet, banking, satellites and
systems that enable NASA to explore Mars, are all developed
by innovative IT professionals. In this era of Information
Technology, which has revolutionised the whole world, INDIA
has stood to the world standards and is being regarded the
World over for it's skilled IT Professionals. The domestic
hardware industry has witnessed quantum growth in the
turnover and profits, which is largely attributable to our
liberalised economy and the presence of Multinationals like
IBM, HP.
On the software front various software giants like IBM,
Motorola, Oracle, Samsung, HP, Digital, Unisys, AT&T, ICL,
Fujitsu etc. have opened software development centres in
the country. The phenomenal growth that this industry is
witnessing has lead to it being recognised as one of the
highly paid industry. The availability of skilled, qualified
professionals is hardly able to meet the requirement, leaving
a large gap to be filled by those with ambition, aptitude and
willingness to work hard.
Careers in IT
With an ever expanding business needs, a wide variety of career
opportunities are available in computing. This list is by no means
exhaustive and is only meant to be representation of the types of
jobs available, mainly being categorised under two heads –
1. Software
2. Hardware
HARDWARE
Computer Engineers Computer engineers work with the
hardware and software aspects of systems design and
development. They often work as part of a team that designs
new computing devices or computer-related equipment.
Computer hardware engineers usually design, develop, test,
and supervise the manufacture of computer hardware—such
as chips or device controllers.
Network Specialist
The rapid spread of computer networks has resulted in the
increase of requirement of specialists responsible for the
security and administration of the networks they design and
implement systems that keep networks functioning
smoothly. Their Duties may be planning and installation of
the hardware and software that comprise the network,
addition – deletion of files to the network server, maintaining
the peripherals connected to the network, troubleshooting
problems
Certain Reputed Certification programmes as follows, gives
one, further specialisation in this stream –
1. Cisco Certified Network Associate - CCNA certified
professionals can install, configure, and operate LAN, WAN,
and dial access services for small networks (100 nodes or
fewer), including but not limited to use of these protocols.
2. Cisco Certified Network Professional indicates advanced
knowledge of networks. With a CCNP, a network professional
can handle all networks from 100 to more than 500 nodes.
The content emphasises topics such as security, converged
networks, quality of service (QoS), virtual private networks
(VPN) and broadband technologies.
3. Multi-layer Switched Networks engineer This programme
explains how resilient campus networks can be designed,
built and configured.
4. Remote Access Networks engineer -This explains how to
build remote access networks to interconnect central sites to
branch offices and home office / telecommuters, it is
intended for network administrators, support or design staff.
5. Internet work troubleshooters .- Internet work
troubleshooters . Internet work troubleshooters It provides
learners with hands-on experience in troubleshooting sub-
optimal performance in a converged network.
SOFTWARE Computer
Programmers Computer programmers write, test, and
maintain the programs or software.
They also conceive, design, and test logical structures for
solving problems by computer. Programmers are of two
broad types:
Applications programmers They usually focus on business,
engineering, or science. They write software to handle a
specific job they may also revise existing packaged software.
Systems Programmers The Computer Systems software such
as Operating System, Compilers etc are maintained and
controlled by them.
Content Development- Content typically includes product
descriptions, basic operations and field applications,
installation and configuration, alignment procedures,
maintenance and system performance information.
Content developers -write, edit, shape, and aggregate
information. They are responsible for producing high quality,
comprehensive product and system materials for
documentation by interpreting technical data into written
content that can easily be used by technical personnel and
end users with varying degrees of knowledge.
Database Administrators- They are the keepers of database
accuracy, efficiency, maintenance and development. The DBA
function requires Database Planning, requirements gathering
and conceptual design, logical design and transaction design,
physical design and implementation, testing and debugging.
Database operations and maintenance, installation,
conversion and migration, training and support are also their
work activities. They should be able to communicate well,
verbally and in writing. Database administrators may advance
to managerial and leadership positions.
Database Specialist -Database Specialists design, install,
update, modify, maintain, and repair computer databases.
Duties may include:
• Providing technical support for existing databases
• Modifying existing databases
• Customising commercial databases for specific needs
• Planning and designing databases for new clients
• Solving problems to meet the needs of clients
• Programming databases for a wide variety of applications
• Overseeing the installation of new databases
• Training staff in client companies about the use of new or
existing databases.
E-Commerce- E-Commerce deals with doing business over
the Internet and World Wide Web. These professionals are
responsible for exploring and developing the ever – growing
sales channels and the expanding customer base. The
primary activities may be identifying E-commerce fields,
customers, marketing, providing online technical support and
finally administration, resulting into improvement of online
B2B transactions, improving the product sales on Internet.
IT and Education
To match the speed at which the IT industry is growing, we
need more trained professionals every year. They could be a
faculty at of the training institutes that impart training on
various subjects or working with universities. All you need to
have is your degrees in place and a passion to teach.
Interface Designer Human-computer interaction is a
relatively upcoming field in computer science, which deals
with ergonomic and interface details in computing. Interface
designers design the user interface of a computer system,
the communication system between the user and the
computer, what you see on the computer screen while using
a program and, how a user is led through a program or
process.
Quality Assurance QA , when applied to web sites, is the
process of enforcing quality control standards and working to
improve the processes that are used in producing the web
site and its components, infrastructure and content. When
well implemented, a web site should see progressive
improvement in terms of both lessening rate of defects and
general increase in site usability and performance. Even the
best designed and developed sites will experience problems
and failures, so a good quality assurance team should set
expectations -- for the entire web site team and with
management -- for what QA can effectively accomplish.
Software Engineers Software engineers or software
developers working in applications.
