Meet the careers in tech

Project Manager in IT

A career in tech isn't just about coding or designing; it can also involve coordinating teams of developers, designers, and testers. That's what project management is all about. We'll dive into the details of this field, explore who’s a good fit for it, and learn how to create a Project Charter, the crucial documentation to kickstart a project.

UI/UX designer

UI/UX design sits between the technical and non-technical sides of IT (and creativity here is a must). On the one hand, you'll need UX skills like user research or creating user journeys on a website. On the other hand, you should know how to use UI to implement your vision: understand color theory, element hierarchy, and how to design it all in Figma. Completing this course can create a website showcasing a 20th-century Ukrainian artist.

Front-end developer

While designers visualize their ideas, someone must translate them into programming languages. That's precisely what front-end developers do. Using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, they transform designs into working websites or applications. We'll create a website for fans of cake who want to know the consequences of "just one more slice" measured in squats, running, or walking.

Python developer

Great! After all these development steps, you have an actual website or application with a user-friendly interface. But wait a minute… When users register, this data needs to be stored somewhere, right? For the part of websites/applications that users don't see, we need back-end development, and among all programming languages, Python is one of the best options. Together, we'll create a simple application for picking a movie for the night (with popcorn from the front-end section).

QA manual

After a long journey of development, the product is finally ready! Oh, hold on, it seems like this button isn't working, and we forgot to add an image here. You probably already guessed that QA is about testing the product for quality. In this profession, you'll learn why and how to test digital products and how to turn it into a career. With us, you'll test a page on the Academy's website and find the bugs we've hidden there.
