Where a footwear 3D developer can go next

5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a footwear 3D developer already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.

Footwear 3D developers design footwear models, make, adjust and modify patterns using computer aided design systems. They focus on the sustainable design of the model, the selection and design of lasts and components, the proper and efficient use of materials, the pattern making, the selection of the bottom and the elaboration of technical data sheets. They may supervise the development and evaluation of prototypes, the preparation of samples, the implementation of the necessary quality control tests on the samples, and the management of the technical documentation of the product.

How these figures were compiled

Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a footwear 3D developer already meets, counting required skills in full and supplementary ones at 0.35. It is directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. Every entry above opens the full comparison for that move: what carries over, what is missing, and where to start. The full method.
