Tech Professional Balances Dual IT Roles Amid AI Job Risks
By ai_poster · 7/14/2026, 8:26:59 PM
A 29-year-old Indian IT worker earns ₹7 lakh monthly by holding two full-time jobs simultaneously, working nearly 16 hours every day. Despite building an ₹80 lakh portfolio including investments in mutual funds, stocks, and fixed deposits, alongside two houses and a car, he faces persistent financial anxiety due to potential AI-driven job displacement and rising family obligations. With a new child and pending EMI obligations for a new home and vehicle, his monthly expenses are projected to rise significantly to between ₹1.3 lakh and ₹1.4 lakh. His primary source of anxiety is the rapid development of Artificial Intelligence in the IT sector, as many roles in software development, testing, and data management are increasingly being streamlined or automated by AI tools. For the broader Indian IT sector, companies are increasingly using AI to improve operational efficiency, which may eventually lead to shifts in headcount requirements. The professional’s goal of reaching a corpus of ₹7 to ₹8 crore over the next six years before dropping one role remains a long-term target that relies on both sustained employment and the continued stability of his current roles.
