Bars: these 455 jobs. Grey tick: the same share in 245 senior machine learning jobs, senior meaning a senior, lead or principal title. A language is shown only when jobs at 10 or more employers mention it, so one company's hiring can't make a pattern. Python's come from 167.Source: Glassbox count, week of 19 October 2026 · how we count
