Engineering robots maybe ? Programming robots ? Robot supervisor ?

Vet , doctor and teacher are good answers as you will (may) still need real people vs robots to make people and animals feel calm
Next decade?

We are pretty far from having robots that could, for example, walk into a construction site and just start painting, or even walk along uneven ground outside a home. Even if we could somehow get to that point, no one is going to trust a robot to do framing or electrical work without direct supervision. It's far more likely that we see people in exo-suits before we have robots actually doing that work.

Robots are nowhere near doing the most basic labour tasks, let alone the trades that require a great deal of experience and thought.

If anything, prefab is a great worry for people in the trades. Even then, you still need people to maintain and repair that work.
