I have been working for 5 years on the embeded system design. I am familiar with kinds of microcontrollers such as STM8, STM32, PIC series, 51, infineon XC164, MSP430, AVR and so on.I have developed many products using them. BUT, I can not find a proper occupation code in National Occupation Classification in Canada if I am a embeded hardware design engineer. I use the "microcontroller" as the key word to search in the NOC specifacation, but the result is NONE. I feel so sad about that.

Who could give me the related information about NOC code as a embeded engineer, especially hardware engineer. I just lose confidence on my career as it is out of time?

 

You are what you are. Who gives a brass farthing what the classification system says?

 

How about NOC 2173?

or NOC 2147.1
