MogiData Scientist Job Postings Surge in Canada
Canada saw the largest percentage increase in Data Scientist job postings over the last 28 days.
By Clara Whitfield, Mogi Research · Oct 15, 2026
Data Scientist job postings in Canada surged by one hundred fifty nine percent, from twenty seven to seventy. This represents the largest percentage increase among countries analyzed.
The United States added eighty twelve Data Scientist job postings, an increase of fifty seven percent from five hundred eighteen. India saw eighty four percent growth, with two hundred seventeen postings compared to one hundred eighteen.
This rise in Canadian postings may be driven by several factors. It could reflect increased demand for data analysis skills in the Canadian market, or it is likely that employers are actively seeking to fill these roles. The crawl may have also captured more postings than in the previous period.
