Open-position counts are reconstructed from when each listing was seen on the company's careers site: a job counts as open from its publish date (or first sighting) until it was last confirmed, so a posting that briefly disappears and returns reads as continuously open. Added counts postings published during the period; Removed counts postings that disappeared from the company's careers site, as detected on the next update. Tracked companies are listed on the JobYap Tech Index.
