Reading this market sample
The current sample contains 1,463 distinct adverts from 648 posting organizations. Pay is stated in 1,009 adverts (69.0% of this sample).
The largest role category is Software engineering, with 364 adverts. The skill tables below separate requirements from other mentions and show their working context.
This report selects adverts observed in the Italian search sample. The location table describes the places named in those adverts; it is separate from the country sample and from eligibility to work remotely. Software development, infrastructure, data and industrial computing appear as distinct role families, so a Python mention can be read in the context of the work involved.
Read salary disclosure alongside the number of adverts: missing amounts are unknown, rather than zero pay. Annual, monthly and hourly offers remain separate, as do gross and net amounts. A salary range is shown only when at least 20 adverts share a comparable pay basis. These observations describe advertised opportunities and do not estimate the earnings of all Italian technology workers.

What work is being advertised?
Role families are interpretations of titles and duties. Mixed or unclear roles may remain unclassified.
Where work happens
Remote describes the stated work mode. Residence, travel and country restrictions can still apply.
Experience levels
Signals over time
A baseline is taking shape.
Growth comparisons need two comparable weeks, sufficient samples and consistent coverage. Missing days and limited results are not zero demand.

First observation is not the original publication date, a new vacancy or a hire.
A skill means more in context
Selected technologies, with supporting text. A mention is not automatically a requirement. Programming, data work and supporting scripts are counted separately; one advert can mention several skills.

Beyond a single language
- No explicit signal

- Accepts named alternatives

- Open to learning or switching

These are separate signals. A list of languages does not establish language agnosticism, and these observations cannot show that AI caused a change.
What pay is actually stated?
Only explicit amounts are included. Currencies, pay periods, tax basis, pay components and working-time basis stay separate. Figures describe advertised pay, not employee earnings.

How to read these figures
The Observatory studies a sample of LinkedIn adverts for IT and related roles in Italy and Switzerland. It covers the opportunities observed, rather than the entire labour market.
Role and skill categories combine explicit source facts with assisted text interpretation. Unclear facts remain unknown. Interpretations are provisional and can change as the method improves.
Counts use distinct advert identities. Reposts or agency adverts can describe the same underlying vacancy. An advert disappearing from the observed sample does not establish that the role was filled.
Pay reflects what was stated when the details were observed. Details can be older than the latest observation. Monthly pay is not automatically annualized, and net and gross pay are never converted into one another.
