[Future Jobs ②] Rising Importance of Digital Equipment Utilization; Pay Attention to 3D Printers
Will humans lose their place as artificial intelligence and robots advance? Just as some positions disappear, new ones are emerging. The Seoul Business Agency is currently promoting a project to foster future innovative job sectors. Keep an eye on this and prepare for a third career in life. As a heads-up, the field of 'curating,' which involves designing areas based on existing knowledge, stands out.
Makers Lab Coordinator
Understanding advanced digital equipment and developing programs
Maker's Labs equipped with cutting-edge digital equipment such as 3D printers, laser cutters, digital cutters, and flatbed printers are emerging. However, there is currently a shortage of experts who understand and utilize this digital equipment. Maker's Lab coordinators teach users how to use these digital devices and creatively develop programs. In addition, they act as mentors, providing design and equipment guides to users through activities such as photographing products produced in the Maker's Lab and developing educational programs.

To date, it is rare to sell products made with 3D printers. This is because they are not commercially viable and are not financially viable. While general product design involves designing methods for processing materials, such as cutting or machining, 3D printing requires expertise that combines design processes and design capabilities, rather than mechanical design. A 3D printing content creator is an expert who produces commercialized products with design value and practical functionality, rather than merely reproducing a form.
Fab Creator
Produce 3D designs and 3D models using 3D printing
Fab Creators are experts who lower the barrier to entry for manufacturing through 3D printing. Existing 3D modelers are typically specialized in a single field, such as product design, animation, video, or gaming. In contrast, Fab Creators possess comprehensive knowledge of digital equipment and master the entire process from product manufacturing to sales and distribution; they also sell content such as 3D models and blueprints using 3D printing technology. In a similar form, there are also Home Factory Masters, individuals who produce customized products at home using printing technology.
Digital Carpenter
A carpenter who designs, manufactures, and sells furniture digitally
People went wild when IKEA entered the domestic market. Its stylish designs and affordable prices, rather than mass-produced goods, resonated with consumers' sensibilities. Digital carpenters have greater freedom in design and production methods compared to woodworking designers, which shortens the time required to become an expert. They occupy a middle ground between the market competitiveness of large furniture companies and the novelty of small workshops. Digital carpenters can work in the fields of producing customized digital furniture that reflects consumer needs and creating specially planned digital products.
