By Mateo Ruiz, Mogi Research · Oct 12, 2026
New job postings for Data Analyst roles in the US fell by four percent in the last seven days. This follows a one percent fall for Backend Engineer postings and a three percent fall for Analytics Engineer roles.
This decrease may be due to several factors. It could reflect seasonal hiring patterns. It is also possible that employers are adjusting their recruitment strategies.
In the US, Texas, California, and Virginia posted the most Data Analyst roles during this period. General Dynamics Information Technology, Booz Allen Hamilton, and APTNEXUS were among the top employers posting these positions.
