Data Scientists require expertise in mathematics, statistics, programming, advanced analytics, information extraction, machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI). Data Engineers, on the other hand, require knowledge of IT infrastructure, IS/IT architecture, programming, and big data technologies. The primary focus of these professions is to develop and analyze solutions for complex business challenges involving large-scale data.

  3. Agile IT Business Specialist

An Agile IT Business Specialist focuses on adaptive planning, rapid delivery of value, and continuous improvement. Professionals in this role are expected to understand agile methodologies and their application in addressing IS/IT-related challenges within business organizations, as well as possess knowledge of IS/IT project management.

The primary focus of this profession is the ability to respond effectively to changing business needs, understand organizational challenges, and communicate requirements efficiently to development teams. This enables IS/IT solutions to be developed and delivered more rapidly while maintaining alignment with business objectives.

  4. IT Infrastructure & Security Engineer

This profession focuses on the design, operation, monitoring, and protection of IS/IT infrastructure and its associated security systems. IT Infrastructure & Security Engineers are expected to possess expertise in IT asset management and protection, network infrastructure planning and capacity management, as well as cybersecurity operations and governance.

The primary focus of this profession is to ensure that IT infrastructure and security systems operate effectively, efficiently, and reliably to support organizational objectives and safeguard digital assets.
