By Andre Costa, Mogi Research · Oct 18, 2026
Software Engineer job postings in Australia fell by fifty five percent. There were thirty one postings in the past week, compared to twenty postings the week before.
This fall may be due to several factors. It could reflect fewer companies posting for these roles. It is also possible that the crawl identified fewer available positions.
In contrast, China saw a surge in Software Engineer job postings, rising by one hundred twelve percent. Brazil experienced a rise of forty four percent in these postings over the same period.
