Karriere: KI bedroht viele Jobs in der IT – diese halten Experten für zukunftssicher
Auf kaum eine Branche hat Künstliche Intelligenz so viel Einfluss wie auf die IT-Branche. Welche Kenntnisse bei Unternehmen künftig zählen – und wieviel Gehalt sie dafür zahlen.
Berlin – Dirk Stöckmann, a former miner, has celebrated his 25-year jubilee at networking equipment maker Cisco. After starting as a system engineer in 2001, he specialized in data center technologies and later worked as a technical solution architect for data analysis. Stöckmann holds one of the most prestigious IT certifications, the CCIE, with only around 100,000 worldwide.
As a Hypershield Solutions Engineer, he designs security architectures for AI-based IT, improving protection for data centers and cloud environments. His current top position is a result of continuous upskilling; renewing his CCIE every three years grants him a solid bonus.
Experts emphasize that curiosity for technology and the willingness to learn continuously are crucial for anyone pursuing an IT career. AI is impacting almost every industry more than ever, automating tasks previously done by human specialists, such as coding, data analysis, error detection, and software testing. However, the good news is that IT experts remain in high demand.
According to a Bitkom survey of 850 companies, 80% believe the skills gap in the industry will worsen, and 42% anticipate AI creating additional demand for specialists. Meanwhile, about 27% expect AI to result in job losses, and nearly a quarter of companies report candidates not meeting specific technological requirements. To succeed in today's IT landscape, talent must possess relevant profiles while some skills may lose importance. This insight was gleaned from discussions with experts and listening to companies' perspectives.
