Atlas of new professions and competencies

IT dispatcher

Profession will appear after 2025

Trends

Increasing the autonomy of industrial equipment Increasing the level of autonomization of drilling processes

Oil and gas

Industrial enterprises of the future, including oil and gas production and refining of petroleum products, will massively use unmanned vehicles and equipment operating autonomously. The autonomy of equipment and production processes requires coordination and dispatching to ensure synchronization of works, high-level dispatching is required. These tasks will be handled by an IT dispatcher.

The novelty of the profession: the implementation of new tasks: software-based remote dispatching.

Key competencies:

Monitoring production data
Coordination of work and execution of dispatching of devices and mechanisms
Defining and setting tasks for operators of robotic equipment
Control of parameters of operation of remote equipment
Making operational decisions

Over-professional skills

The ability of a specialist to combine (summarize) particular facts into a big picture, build hierarchical levels for understanding various situations (economic, political, business) and making long-term decisions. An important quality is the understanding of how a change in one element will subsequently affect other elements.

The importance of systemic thinking is increasing due to the acceleration of changes in life, the need to learn new professions, as well as the growing interpenetration of various areas in each other (social networks, economics, politics, production, etc.).

Specialists with systemic thinking skills will be able to solve such problems, make strong long-term decisions in the context of rapid changes in the economy, diagnose large technical and social systems, make decisions on eliminating the root causes that hinder development, and this skill will allow for the integration of various project teams into a single working organism.

Systemic thinking

This area includes a variety of skills related to the development and adjustment of artificial intelligence systems, the adjustment and tuning of robots, the development of programs for controlling production processes and individual machines.

Automation and robotization rapidly penetrate into all areas, including manufacturing. It is expected that in 15-20 years, machines will replace a person in most routine operations that do not require creative skills. Therefore, the need for specialists with these skills will grow in all sectors. It is these specialists who will have to ensure the massive arrival of machines in all sectors of the economy.

Automation of production will eliminate the human factor and increase labor productivity where routine operations are present that do not require special training and creative skills. Specialists will be in demand not in the main production, but in the field of servicing and tuning machines, robots and systems that make algorithmic decisions.
