Malaysia added job postings for backend engineers, with a 67% rise in the last 28 days. This increase followed a period where postings were 21, reaching 35 in the most recent period. The overall number of new backend engineer job postings across all countries in the scope was 1,234, a 32% rise from 932 postings before.
Portugal saw a surge in backend engineer job postings, increasing by 130% over the 28 day period. Germany also experienced significant growth, with postings rising by 68%. France and Sweden also posted gains, with increases of 56% and 53% respectively.
These changes may be driven by several factors. An increased demand for specific backend skills could be a reason for the rise in postings. It is also possible that employers are actively seeking to fill backend roles, leading to more job advertisements being added to the market.
