Dassault Systemes SolidWorks

Software & technology · O*NET

Dassault Systemes SolidWorks is a hot technology software tool tracked in the Computer aided design CAD software category of O*NET's Technology Skills file. It appears in the technology profile of 58 occupations that together employ about 8,685,150 workers, with a median wage of $88,150. O*NET flags it as a hot technology — a skill frequently requested in job postings.

Across the occupations that use it, the work is 67th percentile for AI task-exposure (High) — how much of what those jobs do overlaps with what today's AI can attempt. That measures the exposure of the work, not the value of the tool or any sign it is being replaced. See where every tool category sits →

Occupations that use this tool
