Agreed, and I feel this is happening across job families - JDs seem much more domain-specific, especially around ML/AI. I don’t remember it being like this. Yes, there is absolutely a distinction between someone working Eng in payments vs infra vs ML, but I remember those being nice-to-haves, not requisites.

Totally - and would add that a lot of jobs that clearly don’t need ML experience seem to want hardcore data scientists now.

Orgs that are still trying to put together their first functional data warehouse, or who haven’t even built an analytics environment yet, seem convinced that they need someone to come in and build models day one. It’s weird out there.
