Summary
1What employers expect people to do
Among the IT jobs where AI is the work: share of job descriptions that ask for each responsibility. A job can ask for several.
Four kinds of AI job, and integration is the largest
2How the job changes with seniority
The same ten responsibilities, split by level. Darker cells mean a larger share of that level's job descriptions ask for it.
3The problems employers are paying to solve
Why the hire exists, coded from each job description.

4AI is spreading into every IT role
How each role family involves AI. Non-AI roles now ask people to integrate AI features or to use AI tools in their daily work.
What "use AI tools" looks like in non-AI job descriptions
5What it pays
Monthly salary from IT job descriptions that state one (Job site No. 1 and No. 3). Only of IT roles state a salary, so read these figures as directional.
Most job postings hide salary, so this figure is for reference only.

6Vietnam versus the US
Compared with my earlier read of 1,405 US postings at 14 AI companies (OpenAI, Anthropic, Databricks, Scale AI, Cursor and others). The methods differ (keywords in the US, responsibility coding here), so compare the direction, not the exact numbers.
7Where demand is heading (2027–2028)
Predictions combine this snapshot (where demand clusters by seniority and pay), the gap with the US market, and published Vietnamese surveys. Confidence reflects how much evidence supports each one.
