A man wearing glasses and working on a laptop computer. The screen typically displays a slash and a greater-than sign, representing a command line interface or lines of source code.
Usage Context
This emoji is the go-to choice for people working in tech, software development, or digital creative fields. It is frequently used to signal that someone is busy coding, debugging a project, or logging on for a late-night session.

History
The man technologist was introduced in Unicode 10.0 in 2017 as part of a push to better represent modern professions.
