1. Demand ranking

4 enriched SWE postings in 2026-W37. Share = postings mentioning the technology ÷ that number — postings still awaiting enrichment are excluded from the denominator, so a processing backlog cannot depress every share at once. The chart shows the top 15; the table in section 3 lists the top 30.

2. Momentum (vs the previous 4 weeks)

No technology cleared the momentum bar this week (10+ postings under this lens): with counts that thin, a share delta would read noise as trend, so the boards stay empty rather than calling the market flat.

3. Salary premium and entry-friendliness

Premium compares the median advertised monthly salary of postings mentioning a technology against the overall median, over the trailing 90 days. Baseline: S$9500, the median of 21 postings advertising a monthly range — medians pin the unit so the figures are comparable. Separately, 100.0% of SWE postings state pay at all (21 of 21, in any unit); the rest hide it, and no figure here describes them. Entry-friendly is computed over the same 90-day window. Premium mixes seniority in (senior roles name more infrastructure); pick an experience band above to compare within one. Entry-friendly = the share of postings mentioning the technology that ask for at most 2 years' experience, or are Intern/Junior roles with no stated requirement. The table lists the top 30 technologies by postings.

4. What else they ask for

These are MyCareersFuture's own skill tags — the competencies the employer filled in on the form, over the trailing 90 days (2026-06-23 → 2026-09-20) across 21 postings. They are not the technology ranking above: languages and frameworks appear only in the free-text description, which is why this system reads it separately. "Must-have" is the share of postings listing the tag that marked it essential rather than desirable — a tag that is everywhere but rarely essential is table stakes, one that is usually essential is a filter someone is applying.
