What employers actually ask for
Credentials named in the 19 postings we read, ranked by how many mentioned each one.
None. Across 19 postings, no certification or licence was named often enough to call it a requirement. For this role in this market, employers are hiring on demonstrated work rather than credentials — which means money spent on a certificate here is unlikely to be what gets you the interview.
This sample is small enough that one posting moves any percentage by more than a couple of points, so we are not calling anything low-signal here. Read the numbers above as a direction, not a measurement.
What it pays
BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, May 2025. A different survey from the postings above, so the two do not share a sample.
Who was hiring
Employers with at least one matching posting in this sample.
Ramp · Braze · Brex · ElevenLabs · Mercor · Robinhood · Baseten · Datadog · Harvey · Sweetgreen · Via · Zocdoc
