      <title>📊 State of Tech Hiring in India — July 2026: Jobspiq Edition</title>
      <dc:creator>Jaydeep Goswami</dc:creator>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fbtwy81o7k4dlfq65rm1i.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fbtwy81o7k4dlfq65rm1i.png" alt=" " width="800" height="1067"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Most job reports rely on surveys or outdated datasets.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At Jobspiq, we decided to do something different:&lt;br&gt;
👉 Analyze real job postings in real-time.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In July 2026, we processed &lt;strong&gt;123,875 tech job postings&lt;/strong&gt; across:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;LinkedIn&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Naukri&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Company career pages&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here’s what we found 👇&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  🏢 Top Hiring Companies
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The companies hiring the most:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Tata Consultancy Services — 2,044 roles
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;EY — 1,565 roles
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Amazon — 809 roles
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Infosys — 800 roles
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Capgemini — 767 roles
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;👉 Insight:&lt;br&gt;
Service-based companies still dominate hiring volume, but product companies show more targeted hiring.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  🌆 Top Cities for Tech Jobs
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Where the opportunities are:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Bengaluru — 27,840
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Hyderabad — 11,271
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Pune — 11,050
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Mumbai — 9,974
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Chennai — 8,544
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;👉 Insight:&lt;br&gt;
Bengaluru continues to be the &lt;strong&gt;undisputed tech hiring hub&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  🧠 Most In-Demand Skills
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Top skills based on job mentions:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Python — 26,101
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;SQL — 22,598
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Agile — 19,727
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Azure — 18,864
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;AWS — 18,785
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;CI/CD — 18,143
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Git — 16,503
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;DevOps — 13,649
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Java — 12,806
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;👉 Insight:&lt;br&gt;
Cloud + DevOps + backend skills dominate the market.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  🏠 Work Mode Trends
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;89%&lt;/strong&gt; roles are Hybrid / Onsite
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;11%&lt;/strong&gt; roles are Fully Remote
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;👉 Insight:&lt;br&gt;
Remote jobs are still limited—don’t rely only on remote filters.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  🔍 Key Insight
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Python, Cloud, DevOps, and modern backend skills continue to lead demand across India’s tech ecosystem.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you’re learning or switching roles:&lt;br&gt;
👉 Focus on high-demand, production-ready skills.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  ⚙️ How We Built This
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;At Jobspiq, we built a system that:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Continuously crawls multiple job sources
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Uses semantic matching (not just keywords)
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Aggregates and de-duplicates listings
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Extracts structured insights
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Tech stack includes:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;FastAPI
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;PostgreSQL + pgvector
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Celery + Redis
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;AI embeddings for job matching
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  🚀 Why This Matters
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Traditional job search is broken:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Too much noise
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Too many duplicate listings
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Late discovery of jobs
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We’re trying to fix that.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  🔗 Try Jobspiq
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you want &lt;strong&gt;real-time job alerts&lt;/strong&gt; and better matches:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;👉 &lt;a href="https://jobspiq.in" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://jobspiq.in&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  💬 What do you think?
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Are these trends matching your experience?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What skills are you seeing more demand for?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Let’s discuss 👇&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>How My Frustrating Job Search Led Me to Build an AI Job-Matching Platform</title>
      <dc:creator>Jaydeep Goswami</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Sat, 18 Jul 2026 15:17:37 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/jaydeepgio/how-my-frustrating-job-search-led-me-to-build-an-ai-job-matching-platform-2h06</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/jaydeepgio/how-my-frustrating-job-search-led-me-to-build-an-ai-job-matching-platform-2h06</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;A few months ago, I was searching for a backend engineering job.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Every day looked the same:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Open LinkedIn&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Open Naukri&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Search for Python jobs&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Open dozens of tabs&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Read every job description&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Apply&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Repeat&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The frustrating part wasn't finding jobs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It was finding &lt;strong&gt;the right jobs&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I kept getting recommendations for roles that technically matched my resume because they contained words like &lt;strong&gt;Python&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Backend&lt;/strong&gt;, or &lt;strong&gt;API&lt;/strong&gt;, but after reading the description I'd realize they wanted a completely different skill set.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I started wondering:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why are job boards still matching keywords instead of understanding what a developer actually knows?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That question eventually turned into a side project called &lt;strong&gt;Jobspiq&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  The Problem
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Imagine these two jobs:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Job A&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Python&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;FastAPI&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;PostgreSQL&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Redis&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Job B&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Java&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Spring Boot&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Oracle&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Kafka&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Both are "Backend Engineer" roles.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A keyword-based system often treats them as similar.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As developers, we know they're not.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  What I Built
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Instead of matching keywords, I built a system that compares a developer's profile with a job description to understand how well they actually fit.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The platform:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Collects jobs from multiple sources.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Removes duplicate postings.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Scores every job based on how closely it matches your profile.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Sends alerts only for high-quality matches.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Helps track applications in one place.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The goal isn't to show more jobs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It's to show fewer, better ones.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  What I Learned
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Building the product taught me something interesting.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Writing the software was the easier part.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Helping people discover it is much harder.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That's why I'm starting to build in public and share what I'm learning along the way.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you've ever built search systems, recommendation engines, or developer tools, I'd love to hear your thoughts.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You can check out the project here:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://jobspiq.in" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://jobspiq.in&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Feedback is always welcome.&lt;/p&gt;
