By Samuel Adeyemi, Mogi Research · Oct 14, 2026
Software engineer job postings in China saw a surge of one hundred eighty three percent in the past week. The number of postings went from eighteen before the period to fifty one now.
This change may be due to increased demand for tech talent in China. It could also reflect a seasonal hiring pattern or a shift in how companies are sourcing candidates.
In the same period, Sweden saw a rise of twenty one percent in software engineer postings, while Singapore experienced a smaller rise of three percent.
