Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Aug 15, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.
Why we read it this way (6)
No specific work location is stated in the posting; the CBSA and state fields are left blank. The role appears to be US-based (US work authorization required, no sponsorship) but no city or office is identified.
The degree requirement lists a Bachelor's in a technical field but explicitly accepts 'equivalent practical experience' as an alternative, so no formal degree is treated as a hard gate.
C, C++, and Java are listed together under required qualifications as interchangeable OOP language options ('C, C++, Java, or similar'); they are captured as a single requirement with alternatives rather than three independent gates.
Python and PowerShell are explicitly marked 'preferred' in the posting and are treated accordingly.
Automotive communication protocols (CAN, LIN, UDS, DoIP, OBD-II) and ADAS knowledge are explicitly described as 'preferred' or 'a plus' and are treated accordingly.
The role blends software development with diagnostic data analysis and automotive systems work; 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) is noted as a plausible alternative given the data analysis and diagnostic investigation emphasis, but primary day-to-day work is software development.
