New Roles · Role pages

The new AI roles. One page per role, grounded in a dated source snapshot.

Each page covers what the role is, which employers appear in the source postings, what its tasks actually look like, and how to connect the role to workflow responsibilities and preparation. Sourced from 264,613 source job postings. Snapshot 2026-07-17. Postings are market evidence, not confirmation that each vacancy remains open.

The workforce combines people and AI agents. Connect these human roles to actual work in your enterprise: building a testing agent, configuring invoice generation, developing a model or delivering a customer solution. Hiring patterns inform the discussion; the project, relevant systems and assessment need their own scope.
