🧑‍💻

Technologist Emoji 🧑‍💻

What 🧑‍💻 means

A gender-neutral character designed with side-parted, short hair, and forward-looking eyes with the rest of the face and body covered with a laptop (which most likely looks like a Mac). In some platforms, the laptop is kept aside and the face is visible.

The 🧑‍💻 Technologist emoji refers to any person working in the technology sector irrespective of gender and sex. It signifies a desk job, which is not as mundane as it may sound. Alongside, this emoji also refers to self-motivation, focus, knowledge, and expertise in the world of tech.

This emoji is available in the designated skin tones on almost all platforms.

How and when to use it

If you recently bagged a new job as a tech employee (it can be any designation - intern, professional, freelancer, etc), and you're talking about it to your close ones or posting this milestone on social media then you can use 🧑‍💻 in the text messages or post captions.
Since the 🧑‍💻 emoji describes a person in front of a laptop (or computer), it can refer to almost any job that requires the employee to sit in front of a system.
🧑‍💻 can also also be used in a WFH (Work From Home) context.
You can use 🧑‍💻 in post captions while posting anything about the field of technology, a particular aspect that amuses you, etc.
🧑‍💻 can indicate a sense of being busy (wink) - the kind where you seem to be engrossed in your phone/laptop just so that you can ignore a particular person or situation - so the next time you receive annoying neutral texts from someone, and you really want to ignore them, send this emoji. If it doesn't work once, shy not, use it repeatedly.
🧑‍💻 can be incorporated into contexts of posting about your own work/workplace or your line of work as an entirety.
