富比世網站的文章〈5 High-Paying Remote Jobs In The IT Industry That Are Not Programming〉中，作者提到很多人以為自己並非技術出身，就進不了技術產業。但其實科技公司與一般公司一樣，除了IT部門之外，也會需要人資、行銷、法律與財務等專業人才。此外在IT產業工作還有另一個優點，即使工作內容不是coding，但遠端工作的機會仍比其他產業還要來的大。

現在就來看看IT產業中，5個高薪且非工程師的職位吧！

1. IT Headhunter/ HR Specialist (獵頭/人資專員)

雖然不一定要是技術專家才能聘請技術專家，不過還是必須對產業動向有一定的了解，以及知道有哪些新的技術需求。且因為科技產業發展迅速，必須不斷關注特定職位所需的技能、學位與證照，才能確保找到最適合的人才。

You don’t have to be a techie to recruit techies, but you do have to understand the industry, where it is going, the newer technologies that are in demand, etc. And because the tech sector is rapidly evolving, you will have to keep a close eye on the in-demandskills,degrees,certificationsthat specific positions require.

IT產業中的人資專員平均年薪為美元$65,000 - $70,000，資深獵頭則可能達到$100,000美元。

2. Accountant (會計）

雖然有不少軟體可以簡化複雜的財務流程，會計師通常會被聘請來做更複雜的工作，如審計、盡職調查（在投資或併購案中，確認對方公司是否值得投資、是否存在其他潛在風險）、薪酬管理等。

While there is plenty of software that will handle all of the less complex financial processes, an accountant is usually employed for more complex yet required needs such as audits, due diligence, payroll management etc.

3. Digital Marketing Specialist/Consultant (數位行銷/顧問)

開發出色的軟體與App固然是IT公司的主要工作，但談到如何有效行銷這些產品又是另一回事。對新創公司而言，若想找到產品客戶，雇用遠端行銷人員是較聰明且必要的方式。

It’s one thing for an IT firm to develop amazing software and apps. It’s quite another to market those products effectively. And for young tech startups, employing remote marketers is a wise and often necessary route to take if they want to get their products in front of end consumers.

而數位行銷工作又可根據不同利基細分為不同專業，如成長駭客與顧客獲取（Growth hacking & user acquisition）、搜尋引擎分析與優化（SEO analysis and optimization）、文案與內容行銷（Copywriting and content marketing）等,有些專家年薪甚至可達到十萬美金。

4. IT Sales Pros (IT銷售專家)

大型IT企業為了滿足世界各地的客戶，即使不一定有當地辦公室，但雇用當地的業務代表就相當自然。而這份工作除了底薪，還有銷售佣金。因此如果銷售的是高端產品，且懂得與企業協調到佣金比例，賺取高薪的機會也不小。

Major IT companies are usually catering to users from all around the world. So it is only natural that such businesses are often looking to hire sales representatives in locations where they have customers (or major interest), but don’t have representative offices.

5. Training & Development Consultant (訓練與發展顧問)

 大家都說科技進展的速度快到難以追上，這也代表對IT企業而言，訓練與人才發展是有一定需求的。因此即使並非科技專家，如果你是專精設計與安排線上學習與訓練課程的專家，仍然會有不少工作機會，例如協助企業進行教育訓練流程的規劃。

Many say that technology is evolving faster than we can keep up. What it means for IT firms is that there is a continual need for training and talent development, some of which will be in-house and much of which may occur digitally, because of remote workforces.You aren’t a techie, but if you are a seasoned pro in designing and setting up training and e-learning programs, there will be plenty of opportunities for you.

薪資約分布於$50,000至$100,000美元之間。
