Tech Jobs Radar

I was curious about the geographical distribution of top tech jobs - for example, how many FAANG jobs are in Europe and where they are primarily concentrated. To explore this, I created a draft (prototype) of Tech Jobs Radar: jobs-radar.com

The dashboard visualizes a snapshot of open top tech positions on a map (currently based on December 2024 data). To make comparisons easier, it aggregates jobs into clusters depending on the zoom level, allowing you to analyze data across continents, countries, states, or counties.

The data for December 2024 contains a snapshot of 32054 open job positions from the top 53 tech companies across 58 countries.

The "Top Tech" here refers to a subset of the largest tech companies by market capitalization or smaller companies known for their technically challenging products. Please note that the company list is not exhaustive, and the job listings may be incomplete. The website is not intended for active job seeking but rather aims to provide a global perspective on the distribution of high-tech job opportunities.

The data may contain location errors. Also not all jobs may be technical. So, treat the numbers more like a general trend than a precise statistics.

It also includes company and country filters to help you explore specific slices of the data - for instance, you can check open positions at Uber or identify the main engineering hubs for a particular company.

Additionally, you can search for jobs by title. Each listing includes a link to the detailed description on Indeed.

Here are some numbers...
