Questions

How do you know a company uses C++?

A company counts when at least one of its open job postings lists C++ as a requirement, not as a nice-to-have. The list is rebuilt every night from the postings on the employers' own careers boards. Staffing agencies, job republishers and the maker of C++ itself are left out.

Which teams hire for C++?

Of the 483 open roles that require it, most are in backend engineering (142), hardware engineering (90) and AI and machine learning (45).

What do C++ roles pay?

70 of the 483 roles state the pay. The middle of their posted ranges is $139k a year, converted to US dollars.

Can I download this list?

Yes, through the API: company.getList with technology=C++ and country=GB returns each company's name, website, size, industry and headquarters for 0.02 credits a row (a credit is $0.10). New accounts start with 30 free credits.
