If you're a techie, programming may be more of a calling than a career. Programmers are highly specialized and focused in their work. And they are employed in nearly every industry developing the code that makes software do its job. Here's what you might do as a programmer:

  • Modify and upgrade existing software
  • Test and debug software
  • Integrate off-the-shelf software with in-house programs
  • Design Web site enhancements
  • Write user manuals

Programmers hold more than 400,000 jobs in the U.S. They are employed in almost every industry. Many work as independent contractors. Through 2014, jobs for systems and applications programmers should be most plentiful in data processing service firms, software houses and computer consulting businesses.
