Future Professions in the Industry Until 2035: Discover High-Demand Positions, Technologies, and How to Qualify for the Market.

Future Professions in the Industry: See What Changes by 2035

The Brazilian industrial sector is about to undergo a revolution. According to a study by the National Industry Observatory (ONI) of the National Confederation of Industry (CNI), by 2035, 16 professions, comprising both technical and higher education positions, will be in high demand in the national industry.

The research also indicates that new technologies will transform the way of working in the industry, requiring constant qualification and mastery of digital tools.

For Márcio Guerra, superintendent of ONI, the change in the professional profile within the industry is inevitable. “Operational and repetitive functions are likely to disappear, making way for more analytical, creative, and interdisciplinary occupations.

Future Professions: Highlighting Technical Positions

Among technical positions, eight roles are expected to grow significantly by 2035:

Microgrid and Renewable Energy Technician – 30% growth.
Industrial Cybersecurity Technician – 25% increase.
Additive Manufacturing Technician (3D Printing) – 25% rise.
Predictive Maintenance Technician – 15% growth.
Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Industrial Connectivity Technician – 10%.
Autonomous Robot and Drone Operation Technician – 10%.
Augmented and Virtual Reality Technician (AR/VR) – 10%.
Remote Sensing and Geotechnologies Technician – 8%.

These professionals will be essential for the implementation of emerging technologies, ensuring safety, efficiency, and innovation in industrial production.

Higher Education Positions Promising Growth

At the higher education level, eight functions also stand out, requiring solid training and constant updates:

Open and Collaborative Innovation Manager – 27% growth.
Sustainability and Circular Economy Manager – 20%.
Digital Twins and Virtual Modeling Specialist – 15%.
Algorithmic Governance and Digital Ethics Specialist – 12%.
Industrial Data Scientist – 12%.
Machine Learning and Industrial AI Engineer – 10%.
Edge Computing Engineer – 8%.
Blockchain Solutions Architect for Supply Chain – 5%.

“It’s not just about operating machines and equipment. It’s necessary to understand the systems that connect them, analyze the data they produce, and make data-driven decisions,” reinforces Guerra.

Emerging Technologies Transforming the Industry

In addition to professions, the study also highlights technologies that will have a direct impact on the sector, such as artificial intelligence, IIoT, digital twins, blockchain, additive manufacturing, and augmented reality.

Additionally, organizational practices such as agile methodologies, circular economy, and algorithmic governance are also expected to solidify, which will increase the competitiveness of companies.

The research projects that by 2035, about 60% of industries will demand industrial cybersecurity technicians, while 50% will seek microgrid specialists. Therefore, these changes reinforce the need for continuous qualification and advanced analytical skills.

How to Prepare for Future Professions

For those who wish to stand out, the recommendation is to invest in technical and higher education training and, furthermore, seek updates in digital tools and innovative methodologies. In addition, mastering data, artificial intelligence, and interconnected systems will be essential to face the challenges of the future industry.

The transformation has already begun, and consequently, the market is becoming increasingly selective. Thus, professionals prepared to integrate technology, data analysis, and innovation will have a competitive edge by 2035, becoming protagonists in the industry of the future.
