This role's skill map
Every share divides by this role's 321 postings in the September 11, 2026 edition. The 20 technology skills they mention most, grouped into three lenses; a lens is a reading aid and does not mean its skills matter equally.
Across 321 Algorithm Engineer postings: in Foundations and problem-solving, Python is mentioned most (62.3%); in Production and delivery, Linux is mentioned most (15.9%); in Framework, LLM and domain signals, PyTorch is mentioned most (24.0%).
Compared with all core AI postings, this role mentions C++ (60.4%, overall 20.8%), C (43.3%, overall 12.3%), MATLAB (23.1%, overall 3.4%) at least twice as often.
A share is a signal of what employers write into postings. It does not mean a course is required to do the job, and it says nothing about hiring odds or pay.
How the readings are made: "more concentrated than overall" means that in a role family with a page of its own, at least 10 postings mention the skill and its share is at least 2 times its share of all core AI postings; "common" means at least 20% of a role's postings mention it. They describe the postings open in this edition, not a trend.
