Frequently Asked Questions

How many Kafka jobs are available right now?
There are currently 262 open positions that list Kafka as a required skill. This number updates daily as new jobs are posted.
How do you know a job requires Kafka?
We analyze every job description to identify the specific technologies mentioned. We distinguish between technologies that are required, nice-to-have, or explicitly not used, so you get an accurate picture of each role's tech stack.
Can I filter out jobs that use certain technologies?
Yes. Jobdex supports negative filtering, which lets you exclude specific technologies from your search. For example, you can find Kafka jobs that don't use a particular framework or language.
Are salary ranges accurate?
When a company includes salary in their job posting, we use that directly. Otherwise, we parse salary information from the job description. Each salary figure gets a confidence score. High-confidence data is shown prominently, while less certain figures are clearly marked.
