you're a data engineer. the timeline just said "data engineers > AI engineers" and you felt seen for the first time since 2014. checked the job posts. US, last 30 days: titled data engineer → 6,650 titled AI engineer → 7,015 so... basically a tie. the fun part is pay. 28% of the data engineer posts show a salary. only 15% of the AI engineer ones do. but when they do show it, 59% of AI engineer ranges start at $150k+. data engineers: 24%. AI engineers get the bigger number. data engineers get to actually see theirs. cost: 9 credits. platform.metix.ai/

Next year, I will give one deduplicated, still-employed, actually-correct candidate profile to every recruiter in America. This will be the first of many.

you're a startup recruiter. you want people who've already done the 3am part. one query: people with a past founder title, not a founder now, working as an engineer / PM / head of something at a 10–200 person company. → 64,794. 17,268 in the US. cost: 3 credits. they've run payroll, answered support at midnight, survived a pivot, and still chose to join someone else's thing. that's not a red flag. that's the hire. platform.metix.ai/

you're a founder about to hire your first AI engineer. you'd like to know the number before the candidate says it. one query: US jobs titled AI engineer, last 30 days → 7,226. only 1,061 of them post a salary. of those, the range starts at $150k+ in 622. $200k+ in 218. $250k+ in 51. 13 start at $300k. cost: 6 credits. the other 6,165 leave it blank. i assume the number is "competitive". platform.metix.ai/

pulled every US job with "software engineer" in the title from the last 30 days. 19,684 of them. 4,383 mention remote 4,224 mention hybrid 2,273 say onsite a mention isn't a promise (some of those say "not remote"), but the "remote is dead" crowd might be a little early platform.metix.ai/

you're an investor. you want the startup right after product-market fit, before the round is news. one tell: they're hiring their first salesperson. query: jobs titled founding AE / founding account executive / founding sales, last 30 days → 205 (106 in the US). same query for founding engineer → 302. cost: 3 credits. founding engineers mean they're still building. a founding AE means someone's buying. platform.metix.ai/

you sell devtools. you want the people who are about to change the stack. one query: VP Eng / Head of Eng / CTO, current role started in the last 12 months, company 50–1,000 people. → 3,093 results. 1,509 in the US. cost: 2 credits. new eng leaders show up with a list of tools they'd rip out. be on the replacement list, not the rip-out list. platform.metix.ai/

you're building HR tech. you need companies drowning in recruiting. one query: US jobs titled recruiter, posted last 30 days → 2,594 postings. then count by company: a big tech retailer has 46 open. one staffing firm has 40. recruiters hiring recruiters. it's recruiters all the way down. cost: 6 credits. platform.metix.ai/

you're a founder. you need a Head of Growth, and you want to know who else is hunting. query 1: jobs titled head of growth, posted last 30 days, description mentions "developer" → 9 open roles. query 2: people who are Head of Growth at ≤500-person cos, skills mention developer tools → 180. cost: 5 credits total. one list is your competition. the other is your shortlist. platform.metix.ai/
