ICT application configurator to industrial mobile devices software developer
An ICT application configurator already meets 69% of what the industrial mobile devices software developer role asks for. The move turns on 7 required skills not yet in the profile.
44.7/ 100
1 How much of what an industrial mobile devices software developer is expected to do is already part of an ICT application configurator’s work. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs, because moving into a speciality is not the same problem as moving out of one. 2 Every skill the industrial mobile devices software developer role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.
Why this move works
An industrial mobile devices software developer role treats 12 of its required skills as things an ICT application configurator already does. You would walk in with these on day one.
- ICT debugging tools
- analyse software specifications
- computer programming
- create flowchart diagram
- debug software
- develop software prototype
What stands in the way is 7 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 63 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. An industrial mobile devices software developer role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of an ICT application configurator background worth leading with.
- already held Xcode information and communication technologies (icts)
- already held use concurrent programming working with computers
- already held use functional programming working with computers
- already held KDevelop information and communication technologies (icts)
- already held use logic programming working with computers
- already held use object-oriented programming working with computers
All 63 carried skills, including the 12 the industrial mobile devices software developer role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you may need to learn
The 26 missing skills fall into 6 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered in the order worth working in. Areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the optional ones. Nothing here is a verdict on you: it is a list of what this particular job asks for that your current one does not.

Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries an industrial mobile devices software developer role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 Internet of Things study this
- 02 design application interfaces practise this
- 03 embedded systems study this
Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

Other moves recorded from ICT application configurator
Common questions about this move
Can an ICT application configurator become an industrial mobile devices software developer?
Yes, and it is a moderate move. An ICT application configurator already covers 69% of what an industrial mobile devices software developer is expected to do: 63 skills carry over, 12 of which the industrial mobile devices software developer role treats as required.
What skills does an ICT application configurator need to become an industrial mobile devices software developer?
7 required skills are missing, plus 19 optional ones. They fall into 6 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, led by information and communication technologies (icts). The single most important is Internet of Things.
How hard is the move from ICT application configurator to industrial mobile devices software developer?
Its learning distance is 44.7 out of 100, which is the moderate band. That accounts for both how much is missing and how specialised those skills are.
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.
