STATE OF THE TECH JOB MARKET IN 2026
Twice a year, I dig into trends in hiring and job openings. This is the fifth report I've done, and the most surprising yet:
1. PMs are winning in the AI era
2. Engineering demand has stalled
3. Design openings are at a record low
4. Every role now requires AI skills
5. Tech jobs are concentrating in the Bay Area
6. Remote roles are at a record low
7. The tech job market is growing fast, but mostly outside of software (gasp!)

Software around me is not improving nor is it expanding.
If AI drastically lower the cost of software… then we have a mystery, don’t we?
The answer is that building the software was never the difficult part in these cases. Our organizations have been optimized for process, meetings, and risk avoidance instead of shipping working systems. It is institutional decay: layers of people whose main job is to prevent other people from doing the work.
@notwashed crazy delusion. Crypto is in for eternal underperformance. Only when strock implode crypto will implode with it and after that i then we can talk about outperformance
@gabriel1 so you are telling me that now everyone else apart of the SWE's are gonna loose their job because it is no 10x easier and cheaper to build software
to all my followers who believe in this, sincerely - it's bullshit.
this is an era of unprecedented technology and with it comes unknown challenges, it is like a new world map in a game where only paid promotional beta testers have been before.
what is the value of discovering a counterfactual now when people have stopped reading everything?
how reliable is this tech where you chat with a bot and it hallucinates 3 times a day but you never know on what? what is the cost of discovering such bugs late for your projects?
what is the cost of discovering problems/bugs when entire world is wearing the same glasses and everyone has same blindspots?
"there is no technical moat" - yeah, for you.
ofc you would think that if you are someone who has always just wanted to get by their day and do nothing beyond what is forced on you, then yeah, sure.
but if you tell a guy like me "everyone is offloading to the same machine to think, using the same overabstracted superficially verified systems, where agentic PR count is a porn to be consumed by those who think they are doing something". if you tell a guy like me that, i would say there is now an opportunity to be hercules amongst men. there is an opportunity to really use this tech around you to imitate what fabrice bellard could have pulled off in your niche if he cared as much as you.
there is an insane opportunity to be unlimited, your moat is starting your morning where others have stopped caring about something.
