A cluster of job listings shared on May 18 pointed to continued demand for practical data roles built around SQL, Python and modern cloud data tools. The postings included data analyst jobs in the $80,000-$100,000 range, senior data engineering roles seeking Snowflake and Informatica experience, and remote healthcare analytics internships. The sample post came from the X account JobFound5 on May 18, which highlighted analyst, engineering and internship openings in one thread. Public job boards and employer career pages reviewed on May 19 showed similar requirements across live listings, including SQL, Python, cloud data warehouses and reporting tools. ### Which roles are showing up most often? Data analyst and analytics-engineering jobs are the clearest through line. Indeed listings reviewed on May 19 included broad U.S. searches for data analyst jobs at $80,000 and above, alongside remote analyst openings and internships tied to reporting, API queries and data quality work. An Indeed posting for a remote Business/Data Analyst role listed pay at $85,000 a year and asked candidates to collect, prepare and validate data, including through API queries and data-quality checks. (indeed.com) That posting sat alongside other analyst listings on the site with salaries above the $80,000 mark. ### What skills are employers naming in these listings? SQL and Python appeared repeatedly across the postings reviewed. (indeed.com) A data intern listing for Autura said candidates should be comfortable with SQL, with Python a plus, and named Snowflake, ThoughtSpot, Salesforce, NetSuite and Zendesk among relevant tools. Snowflake’s university recruiting page and a Summer 2026 analytics engineering internship listing also pointed to the same stack. (indeed.com) The internship description said interns would build semantic models, datasets and dashboards using SQL, Python and dbt inside Snowflake’s Data, Analytics & AI team. The JobFound5 post also referenced senior data engineering openings that called for Snowflake, Python, Informatica and cloud experience. (jobera.com) While the X post itself was not directly retrievable in search results reviewed, those requirements match the skill mix surfacing across current analytics and data-platform roles on public job sites. ### Are remote and internship roles part of the same hiring pattern? Remote work remained part of the picture in listings reviewed on May 19. (careers.snowflake.com) Indeed showed hundreds of remote medical data analytics intern openings, while other remote internship aggregators surfaced healthcare and data roles asking for SQL, Python and reporting skills. Healthcare was one visible lane. Relevant Healthcare listed a health center data analytics intern role, and remote internship listings tied data work to patient outcomes, reporting and analytics support. (jobfound.org) ### Why does the pay range stand out? The $80,000-$100,000 range matters because it is attached to roles centered on applied analytics rather than only advanced machine-learning research. Indeed’s job search pages showed tens of thousands of data analyst listings at $80,000 and above, indicating that mid-market compensation is being attached to business-facing data work as well as engineering-heavy roles. (indeed.com) That pay level also sits next to specific tool expectations. (relevant.healthcare) Employers are not just asking for “data skills”; they are naming SQL, Python, Snowflake, APIs, dashboards and cloud systems in live postings. ### Where can job seekers verify the trend themselves? JobFound’s site said it had more than 500 jobs added this week and more than 3,000 active roles across remote U.S. and U.K. openings. Indeed’s current search pages also provide a direct read on analyst salary bands, remote filters and healthcare analytics internships. (indeed.com) Snowflake’s university recruiting page and live internship listings offer another check on the skills employers are prioritizing for early-career candidates in 2026. (indeed.com) Those pages remained live on May 19. (careers.snowflake.com) (jobfound.org)
