Product Owner Job Postings Rise 30 Percent in US

By Andre Costa, Mogi Research · Oct 20, 2026
Product Owner job postings in the US rose thirty percent, from three hundred twelve to four hundred six over the past four weeks. This growth represents a notable increase in demand for this role.
The rise in Product Owner postings may be attributed to several factors. Companies could be investing more in product development teams to meet evolving market needs, or perhaps there is an increased focus on roles that bridge the gap between business strategy and technical execution.
Other roles also saw significant changes in job postings. Data Engineer postings surged seventy one percent, and Analytics Engineer postings rose fifty seven percent. Data Analyst postings increased thirty five percent, while Data Scientist postings grew thirty two percent.
