Where it is mentioned most
Each row divides by that role's postings in this edition, highest share first.
Postings in 10 role families mention Python in this edition.
In 7 of the 8 role families with a page of their own, at least one posting in five mentions Python: Data Scientist 84.8%, LLM / NLP Engineer 73.7%, Algorithm Engineer 62.3%, Computer Vision Engineer 61.1%, AI Engineer 60.7%, Smart Manufacturing / AOI 33.8%, Edge AI / Hardware Engineer 29.3%.
No role family with a page of its own mentions Python at twice its share of all core AI postings or more.
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.
