Where it is mentioned most

Each row divides by that role's postings in this edition, highest share first.

Reading this edition

Postings in 10 role families mention C++ in this edition.

In 3 of the 8 role families with a page of their own, at least one posting in five mentions C++: Computer Vision Engineer 67.3%, Algorithm Engineer 60.4%, Edge AI / Hardware Engineer 30.1%.

C++ is more concentrated in Computer Vision Engineer postings (67.3%) than across all core AI postings (20.8%): at least twice the overall share.

C++ is more concentrated in Algorithm Engineer postings (60.4%) than across all core AI postings (20.8%): at least twice the overall share.

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.
