AI and the growing need to fill technical project manager roles

According to research by Pearson and LIKE.TG, about 60,000 new technical project manager roles will need to be filled in the U.S. by 2027. As AI is used to automate processes and tasks such as analysis, budget allocation, and project time frames, technical project managers will need to spend significantly less time providing technical guidance and support.

In addition to foundational IT, technical project managers of the future will need to excel in:

• Leadership and collaboration
• Complex problem-solving and long-term planning
• Creativity and communication
• Analytical thinking and innovation
• Reasoning and ideation
• Resilience, tolerance, and flexibility

Technical project managers will be called upon to develop project plans, budgets, and teams; provide status reports; and resolve schedule and budget issues. To be the most successful, these specialized project managers will need to be proficient in project management methods, domain and application knowledge, and mentoring and development.
