LinkedIn Jobs on the Rise 2025: The 10 fastest-growing roles in Hyderabad

Today we unveil our annual list of Jobs on the Rise in Hyderabad, a data-backed ranking of the 10 fastest-growing jobs over the past three years in the city.

Whether it’s the emergence of AI or a focus on sales jobs, the ranking reveals sectors with sustainable growth locally in today’s evolving world of work. While the metrics used are the same as our India Jobs on the Rise list, the methodology slightly differs, reflecting activity at the local city level instead of the country (you can read more at the bottom of this article).?

The list is a roadmap that can point you in the right direction at any stage of your career. Under each job title, you can explore the most common skills, top industries, remote and hybrid availability and more. And you can turn those insights into action by exploring open roles or honing your skills through LinkedIn Learning courses (free for all members until Feb. 15).

List Methodology

LinkedIn Economic Graph researchers examined millions of jobs started by LinkedIn members from January 1, 2022 to July 31, 2024 to calculate a growth rate for each job title. To be ranked, a job title needed to see positive growth across our membership base and sufficient job postings in the past year, as well as have grown to a meaningful size by 2024. Identical job titles across different seniority levels were grouped and ranked together. Internships, volunteer positions, interim roles and student roles were excluded, and jobs where hiring was dominated by a small handful of companies in each city were also excluded.?

Job Insights?

Additional data points for each of the job titles are based on LinkedIn profiles of members holding the title and/or open jobs for that title in the city.

Remote and hybrid job availability is based on jobs posted from November 2023 to November 2024 flagged as “remote” or “hybrid” by the poster or containing similar keywords. Most common skills were derived from the top skills most unique to each title among members who have ever held that title on LinkedIn. Most common industries are based on the industry of the companies that hired the highest number of members for each job from January 1, 2024 to October 31, 2024.
