This role's skill map

Every share divides by this role's 123 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.

Reading this edition

Across 123 Edge AI / Hardware Engineer postings: in Foundations and problem-solving, C++ is mentioned most (30.1%); in Production and delivery, EDA Tools is mentioned most (32.5%); in Framework, LLM and domain signals, TensorFlow is mentioned most (8.9%).

Compared with all core AI postings, this role mentions EDA Tools (32.5%, overall 2.5%), C (27.6%, overall 12.3%), Edge AI (21.9%, overall 4.6%) 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.
