Notes & method
Methodology
Every figure is a count of current profiles on one named company's own exclusive homepage record — IBM, Oracle, Cisco, SAP, Adobe — never a rolled-up parent entity. The seat is spelled-out Software Development Engineer in Test, with Senior counted in the same family. All numbers share one as-of date, 2026-10-16 PT. Source: Metix AI.
FAQ
- Why these five companies and not other Software Development Engineer in Test employers?
- Because each of the five — IBM, Oracle, Cisco, SAP, Adobe — has its own exclusive company homepage record, so its bench can be counted directly. Together they hold 1108 current Software Development Engineer in Test profiles across the five exclusive company homepage records as of 2026-10-16 PT.
- Does the total of 1108 include QA Engineer or Test Engineer titles?
- No. The 1108 is the sum of current Software Development Engineer in Test profiles on the five exclusive company homepage records (500 + 368 + 121 + 66 + 53) as of 2026-10-16 PT; QA Engineer and Test Engineer titles are counted outside this seat.
- Why does IBM sit at 500 while Adobe sits at 53?
- The counting rule is identical for both: current Software Development Engineer in Test profiles on each company's own exclusive homepage record as of 2026-10-16 PT. IBM's record holds 500 and Adobe's holds 53, so the gap reflects bench depth rather than a different scope.
- Can this same Software Development Engineer in Test seat cut be remade for a company outside the published 1108-person pack?
- Yes. The published SDET peer pack stays fixed at 1108 across the five exclusive homepage records as of 2026-10-16 PT, and the same spelled-out Software Development Engineer in Test seat can be applied to another company record on request.
