Data Analyst Job Postings Rise 47 Percent
Machine Learning Engineer and Analytics Engineer roles also saw significant increases in new job postings.
By Isabel Moreau, Mogi Research · Nov 7, 2026
New job postings for Data Analysts rose by forty-seven percent in the last seven days, with four hundred fifty-eight new postings compared to three hundred eleven previously. This increase may reflect growing demand for professionals who can interpret complex datasets. It could also be influenced by employers actively seeking to fill roles that support data-driven decision making.
The broader market for technical roles also showed upward movement. Machine Learning Engineer postings surged by one hundred seventy percent, and Analytics Engineer roles saw an eighty-seven percent rise. These figures suggest a strong demand across several specialized data-focused positions.
The rise in Data Analyst postings may be linked to specific employers seeking these skills. For example, Robert Half, Jobgether, and Airbus Defence and Space were among the top employers adding these roles. Virginia, Florida, and New York were the top states for these new postings.
