container equipment design engineertotooling engineer
A container equipment design engineer already meets 73% of what the tooling engineer role asks for. The move turns on 5 required skills not yet in the profile.
This move: 34.6 of 100 · moderate
1 Share of the tooling engineer role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the container equipment design 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 · What you already bring
Of the 33 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A tooling engineer role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a container equipment design engineer background worth leading with.
- already held determine production capacity information skills
- already held reverse engineering engineering, manufacturing and construction
- already held determine production feasibility information skills
- already held monitor production developments information skills
- already held use computer-aided engineering systems working with computers
- already held plan manufacturing processes management skills
All 33 carried skills, including the 23 the tooling engineer role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 19 missing skills fall into 10 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.
- required, not held estimate duration of work required
- optional, not held analyse production processes for improvement optional
- optional, not held perform market research optional
- required, not held multimedia systems required
- required, not held build a product's physical model required
- required, not held ICT software specifications required

Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a tooling engineer role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 ICT software specifications knowledge · sector specific
- 02 build a product's physical model skill · cross sector
- 03 estimate duration of work skill · cross sector
Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

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.
