What the ratio leaves out
Every host in this cut has open roles on the record, so each one is on the ratio. A host whose open roles were not captured would be listed without a bar.
There is no five-host peer-pack ladder here: the comparison is employed per open role on one seat.
Methodology
Employed is the current Hardware Engineer count, Senior included, on each company's own homepage record. Open is the active posting count for that same title family as of 2026-10-13 PT. A recorded 0 means open roles were not captured, not that demand is zero. Source: Metix AI.
