Job Market Pulse — June 2026
Data retrieved June 13, 2026 UTC · first edition (baseline)
A dated snapshot of the job postings dataset behind the API — read first-party from 13 applicant tracking systems, normalized into one schema. This is the baseline edition, so it carries no month-over-month comparison; future editions will. Free to read, free to cite.

Where the jobs are
The eight largest role categories by active postings, each a queryable filter on the API.
| Category | Active postings | Remote |
|---|---|---|
| Software Engineering | 31,633 | 37.5% |
| Business & Operations | 23,811 | 25.0% |
| Healthcare | 23,070 | 10.6% |
| Sales & Account Management | 21,228 | 39.7% |
| Skilled Trades & Field Roles | 17,448 | 5.1% |
| Hospitality & Retail | 14,069 | 2.8% |
| Finance, Legal & Compliance | 13,643 | 27.1% |
| Engineering (Non-Software) | 7,559 | 21.1% |
The top eight categories hold 152,461 postings — 56.2% of all 271,277 active listings — so most hiring in the dataset clusters in a short head of role types. Software Engineering leads on its own at 31,633 postings, 11.7% of the total.
Remote availability splits sharply by category rather than tracking volume. Sales & Account Management (39.7%) and Software Engineering (37.5%) run well above the dataset-wide remote share, while Hospitality & Retail (2.8%) and Skilled Trades & Field Roles (5.1%) are nearly entirely on-site — consistent with work that cannot be done away from a location.
Top 10 countries: United States (123,005) · United Kingdom (19,599) · France (12,548) · Germany (12,404) · Canada (10,290) · India (8,010) · The Netherlands (6,338) · Spain (4,205) · Australia (4,140) · Brazil (3,324)
Remote work
23.5% of active postings are marked remote, derived from the structured location resolved on each posting rather than from free-text title matching. A posting only counts as remote when its resolved location says so, which makes this a floor on real remote availability — what employers actually declare — not a model of it.
Where that remote work concentrates is in the category table above: it splits by the nature of the role, not by category size. Future editions will track how the dataset-wide rate moves month over month.
Pay transparency
32.8% of active postings disclose a salary. The figure reflects only what employers actually publish — salary is never inferred or estimated — so it is a floor on real pay transparency, not a model of it.
This is a single dataset-wide rate. The breakdown does not carry disclosure per category, so this edition reports the global number only and makes no per-category claim. Future editions will track how the rate moves month over month.
