| contents | This report builds upon the Categorization of Roles in the Quantum Industry report by providing detailed profiles for 29 distinct roles across the quantum workforce. While the earlier report established a framework of four major role categories (hardware, software, bridging, and public facing and business) and their subcategories, the current report expands on this structural framework by characterizing what professionals in each role actually do, particularly by identifying the tasks, knowledge, skills, abilities (KSAs), and experience typically required for each role. Each role profile follows a standardized structure guided by the Occupational Information Network (O*NET) framework. By presenting a fine-grained view of day-to-day work and qualification expectations, this report serves as a practical resource for educators, students, industry professionals, and policymakers aiming to understand, educate, and support the evolving quantum workforce. |
