1 Share of the knowledge engineer role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the artificial intelligence engineer profile. Required skills count in full, supplementary skills at 0.35. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. 2 Combines what is missing with how specialised it is, so a gap of general skills scores easier than the same number of narrow ones.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 61 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A knowledge engineer role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a artificial intelligence engineer background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area

already held manage ICT semantic integration working with computers
already held design application interfaces communication, collaboration and creativity
already held manage business knowledge management skills
already held apply ICT systems theory working with computers
already held information categorisation social sciences, journalism and information
already held assess ICT knowledge management skills

All 61 carried skills, including the 16 the knowledge engineer role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 28 missing skills fall into 7 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered below in the order worth working in: the areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the supplementary ones.

Note

How this record was compiled

Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
