Test automation engineer
Test automation engineers write code whose job is to test other code. They build and maintain automated test suites and the pipelines that run them, so that a broken change is caught by a machine rather than by a user.

DevOps engineer
DevOps engineers build the machinery that gets code from a developer's machine into production safely. They automate builds, deployments, and infrastructure, and they are usually the people other teams come to when a release or environment misbehaves.

Site reliability engineer
Site reliability engineers keep production systems running and treat reliability as an engineering problem rather than a manual chore. They set service level objectives, automate away repetitive operational work, and lead the response when something breaks. On-call rotations are a normal part of the role.

Cloud engineer
Cloud engineers design, build, and run systems hosted on cloud platforms. The job mixes networking, security, and automation: provisioning resources in code, controlling who can access what, and keeping an eye on how the environment is configured over time.

Solutions architect
Solutions architects decide how a system should be put together to meet a business need, then explain that decision to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders. Much of the value is in the trade-offs: what to build, what to buy, and what constraints the design has to respect.

Systems administrator
Systems administrators keep an organisation's servers, operating systems, and core services running. The work is a mix of planned maintenance and unplanned problem solving, and it often includes the accounts, backups, and permissions everyone else depends on.

Network administrator
Network administrators design, configure, and maintain the networks that connect an organisation's devices, sites, and services. When connectivity fails, they are the people who work out whether the problem is a cable, a configuration, or a provider.

Network technician
Network technicians install, test, and repair the physical and logical parts of a network. Compared with an administrator the work is more hands-on and site-based: running and terminating cable, swapping hardware, and confirming links behave as expected.

IT support technician
IT support technicians are the first point of contact when someone's technology stops working. They diagnose hardware, software, account, and connectivity problems, fix what they can, and hand on what they cannot with enough detail for the next team.

Database administrator
Database administrators look after the systems where an organisation's data lives. They handle installation, access control, backup and recovery, and performance, and they are accountable when a query slows the business down or a restore is needed.

Data analyst
Data analysts turn raw records into answers people can act on. A large share of the job is unglamorous: finding the right data, cleaning it, checking it against what stakeholders actually meant, and then presenting the result honestly, including its limits.

Data scientist
Data scientists use statistics and programming to answer questions that simple reporting cannot, such as predicting an outcome or estimating the effect of a change. They frame the problem, build and validate a model, and communicate how much confidence the result actually deserves.

Data engineer
Data engineers build the plumbing that moves data from where it is created to where it is analysed. They write pipelines, model warehouse tables, and put checks in place so that analysts and models are working from data that is complete and on time.

Business intelligence analyst
Business intelligence analysts build the reporting layer an organisation runs on. They agree what each metric means, model the underlying data, and produce dashboards that managers can read without needing an analyst in the room.

Machine learning engineer
Machine learning engineers take models out of notebooks and into production systems. The role sits between data science and software engineering: building training and serving pipelines, watching for drift once a model is live, and handling the failure modes that only appear at scale.

Cybersecurity analyst
Cybersecurity analysts protect an organisation's systems and data from attack and misuse. The work combines monitoring and investigation with prevention: assessing risks, hardening configurations, and helping other teams build with security in mind.

Security operations centre analyst
Security operations centre analysts watch an organisation's systems for signs of attack and act on what they find. The role is alert-driven and procedure-heavy, and because monitoring rarely stops at the end of the working day it often runs on shifts.

Penetration tester
Penetration testers are paid to attack systems with permission, to find weaknesses before someone else does. Every engagement runs inside an agreed written scope, and the deliverable is a report that explains each finding, its impact, and how to fix it.

Information security manager
Information security managers own an organisation's security programme rather than any single system. They set policy, direct a security team, decide which risks are accepted or funded, and answer to leadership, auditors, and regulators for those decisions.

Systems analyst
Systems analysts sit between the people who need a system and the people who build it. They study how work is done now, specify what a system must do, and check that what gets delivered actually solves the original problem.

Lawyer
Advises clients on their legal rights and obligations, prepares the documents that give effect to a decision, and represents clients in negotiations, tribunals, and court. Practice areas differ widely, so two lawyers can do work that looks almost nothing alike.

Crown prosecutor
Conducts criminal prosecutions on behalf of the state rather than a private client. The role combines file assessment, disclosure duties, and courtroom advocacy, and carries an obligation to act fairly rather than simply to win.
