Jobs that relate to my personality of being an innovator are app designer, ethical hacker/security, data analyst, bioinformatics research and robotics engineer. Innovators are university researchers mashing up their skills with tech to open new doors into every field. Economonic professors use google-like tools to mine business data for secret or hidden trends. Biologists will program computers to create a new and dramatic type of animation of human cells and invent 3D molecules that may be able to cure cancer. Innovators are also designers of smart machines that are used in things we use on a daily basis. For example, computers, robots, microelectronics and communication devices like cellphones. They combine computer software with tiny, super specialized physical inventions like sensor networks for smart green buildings.
