Remote roles

2,598 of 38,630 postings (6.73%) advertise remote or hybrid work.

Method. Derived from 38,630 job postings collected between 2026-06-25 and 2026-08-24. Counts come from job titles, so a skill named only in the body of a posting is not counted — a Python role advertised as “Backend Engineer” does not appear under Python. Percentages are of all postings in the sample, and a posting naming several skills counts once for each. This dataset contains no salary information, so no pay figures are given.
