As India continues to prove itself a formidable force in the global digital innovation stakes, roles in technology are set to gain pace as the country's most in-demand jobs, according to LinkedIn's new emerging jobs report.
Blockchain development emerged as India's fastest-growing profession for 2020, having recorded the highest growth rate over the past five years. It was joined in the top spots by other technical roles such as artificial intelligence specialist (the U.S.'s number one emerging job), JavaScript developer and robotic process automation consultant.
To determine its list of Emerging Jobs 2020, the professional networking site crunched the data of its some 62 million users in India to determine the growth in hiring of each job between 2015 and 2019. It then identified the skills typically required for each role and in which cities the greatest number of jobs were concentrated.

The predominance of tech roles in this year's list reflects the country's fast rate of digitization. According to McKinsey, India is now the second-fastest digitizing economy after Indonesia. Meanwhile, the growing appetite for blockchain technology now makes it home to the world's sixth greatest number of blockchain patents.
"This year's emerging jobs report is a window into the changing landscape of the Indian economy. The country is seeing a rise in digital transactions, and therefore industries are ramping up investments in Blockchain," said Ruchee Anand, LinkedIn's head of talent solutions and learning solutions for India.
However, other less technical professions — from customer success to digital marketing — also found a place on this year's list, as businesses continue to value personable roles.
"While tech jobs rule the list, it is also interesting to see soft skills such as account management and customer retention become critical, which underscores the importance of human intervention at every level of digitization," he added.
Here are India's top 15 emerging jobs of 2020, the skills they require and where the most jobs are, according to LinkedIn.
