Hacker News Job Trends

Hacker News Job Trends displays a summary of "Who is Hiring" posts, listing companies that are actively hiring based on Hacker News monthly hiring threads, organized by date and frequency of mentions.

Background

Hacker News (HN) is a tech-news and discussion site run by the startup accelerator Y Combinator (YC). It is extremely influential in the software engineering and startup worlds. Every month, HN publishes a "Who Is Hiring?" thread where companies (mostly startups and big tech firms) post job openings directly in the comments. Because the thread is large and unstructured, third-party tools like HackerNewsTrends.com scrape and analyze it to show which technologies, roles, and companies are trending. This page aggregates those trends — showing, for example, which programming languages or job titles appear most often — giving a real-time, bottom-up snapshot of what the tech industry is actually hiring for, as opposed to official surveys or job-board listings.
