What the Scala hiring trend shows

Scala occupies a specific niche in the 'Who is hiring?' thread: a functional-leaning JVM language whose demand is tied closely to big-data and data-engineering work (Spark, Kafka) rather than general backend hiring. The chart shows a smaller, more cyclical curve than the mainstream languages - use share mode to see how its slice moves with the data-platform cycle, and counts for absolute volume. Drill into any month to read the postings and see which roles still reach for Scala over Kotlin or plain Java.
