Israeli hi-tech & AI hiring index
As of 2026-09-10, Scouter tracks 4,607 open hi-tech and AI roles across 873 employers in Israel, counted every morning from the Israeli job boards and from employers' own career pages over a rolling 30-day window.
Change over time appears once 14 days of measurements are held; 11 so far.
By field
| Field | Open roles | Employers | Share |
|---|---|---|---|
| AI & Machine Learning | 396 | 153 | |
| Software Development | 1,020 | 284 | |
| Data & Analytics | 354 | 154 | |
| DevOps & Infrastructure | 498 | 154 | |
| QA & Testing | 475 | 177 | |
| Cybersecurity | 288 | 82 | |
| Product & Project | 1,407 | 464 | |
| Management & Executive | 566 | 224 | |
| Design & UX | 38 | 30 | |
| IT & Support | 156 | 86 | |
| Sales, Marketing & CS | 159 | 85 | |
| Finance & Operations | 185 | 110 | |
| HR & Recruitment | 773 | 167 |
A field's total counts every role in it, so the fields overlap where a job matches more than one. Rows in grey are business roles at technology employers rather than technical roles.
Experience employers ask for
Of the 2,207 openings that state a requirement — 47.9% of the index — this is what they ask for. The other 2,400 say nothing about experience and are not counted here.
| Experience | Open roles | Share of those stating |
|---|---|---|
| 0-2 years | 267 | |
| 3-5 years | 1,406 | |
| 6-9 years | 389 | |
| 10+ years | 145 |
A posting is counted by the minimum it asks for, so "3-5 years" is counted as 3. Requirements are read from the posting's own text; nothing is inferred from a job title.
Who says what they pay
12 of the 4,319 openings that carry a description state a pay figure — 0.28%. The other 288 openings have no description, so they are not counted here.
| What the posting says | Open roles | Share of described |
|---|---|---|
| States a pay range | 4 | |
| States a pay figure | 8 | |
| Mentions pay, no figure | 576 | |
| Says nothing about pay | 3,731 |
Too few postings state a figure for a change over time to mean anything, so no trend is shown until at least 30 do. A figure counts only when a pay word appears beside it, so a car allowance or a signing bonus is not read as a salary. Only shekel figures count: a US or European pay range quoted in a global employer's posting describes a job in that country, not this one.
What the official figures say
We do not estimate salaries. These are the Central Bureau of Statistics' own figures, and every one is a gross monthly wage per employee job — not per employee, so part-time posts pull the average below what a full-time salary looks like.
| Part of the economy | Average gross monthly | Year on year |
|---|---|---|
| Hi-tech | ₪31,332 | |
| Whole economy | ₪13,588 | |
| Financial corporations | ₪21,499 |
Hi-tech accounted for 9.8% of all employee jobs in the economy that month. Figures describe November 2025 and were published on 04 February 2026 by the Central Bureau of Statistics. Release 039/2026

עובד עזב? אולי כבר לא יחליפו אותו: כך AI משנה את שוק העבודה
חברות הטכנולוגיה משקיעות מיליארדים בבינה מלאכותית ומקצצות בכוח אדם, אבל המחקרים עדיין לא מוצאים החלפה המונית של עובדים במכונות; השינוי מתרחש מתחת לרדאר - המשימות עוברות אוטומציה, דרישות התפוקה מכל עובד גדלות ותפקידי הכניסה נמצאים תחת לחץ

About these numbers
- Counts are advertised openings collected in the last 30 days, not an estimate of the whole market.
- "Open roles" counts postings first seen in that window. "Verified live" is the subset whose apply link our nightly check last loaded successfully — it means the advert is still reachable, not that the employer is still hiring.
- A role posted on two boards is counted once; duplicates are collapsed before anything is counted.
- Roles outside hi-tech and AI are excluded, so these figures are smaller than the raw pool.
- No salary estimates: we publish how often employers state pay, never a figure we inferred. See the pay section
