Careers in Tech: Technical and Non-technical Roles

The widespread use of technology has created a vast array of career opportunities in the tech sector, extending far beyond traditional IT roles and employers.

Whether you are interested in using coding skills or pursuing a non-technical role, such as product management or user experience (UX) design, the technology sector has something to offer.

After a brief overview of the diverse career paths available in the sector, you will hear from three panelists working in both technical and non-technical roles.

They will share the day-to-day realities of their jobs as well as their experience transitioning to and developing a career in this sector.

This event is part of Careers Beyond Academia: Options and Pathways for Researchers, our careers conference for Oxford University research staff and DPhil students, 20-23 March 2023.
