Tech Hiring Prioritizes Experience Over Skills; Shift Toward AI Data Roles

A16z's newsletter 'Chart of the Week' analyzes several tech trends based on recent data. It reports that tech job postings since January 2025 show an increased preference for experienced workers and a corresponding decrease in the number of skills required, suggesting an AI-driven shift. This trend is most pronounced in data and systems roles. The newsletter also observes that social media usage is rising, particularly among younger users, but its share of mobile screen time is declining, partially due to increased time on YouTube. Netflix's US users and viewing time have declined over three years, with a 20% drop in YouTube users who also use Netflix. Cybersecurity threats are escalating: the zero-day rate has quadrupled since 2020, and data center construction spending has surged, creating hundreds of thousands of jobs.

• Tech job postings show a 5-10% increase in preferred years of experience and a corresponding drop in preferred skills since January 2025.
• Data and systems jobs show the largest premium for experience.
• Netflix weekly users and time spent in the US have dropped ~15% and 30% respectively over the past 3+ years.

Danish Startup Plinto Raises €2.9M for AI Finance Monitoring

Copenhagen-based startup Plinto has raised €2.9 million in pre-Seed funding to scale its AI-powered platform for real-time financial controlling. The round was led by People Ventures and Emblem, with participation from business angels. Plinto's AI agents integrate with existing ERP, document, banking, and collaboration systems to automatically detect, investigate, and fix financial discrepancies such as duplicate invoices or mismatched deliveries. Founded in early 2025 by Nermina Suljevic, Jakob Nielsen, and Sebastian Rehnby (former Peakon employees), the company currently has paying customers and pilots across logistics, real estate, facility services, and food production. One customer found about 430 deviations per month, another identified a duplicate invoice within a minute of arrival. The funding will support product development, enterprise customer growth, and international expansion beyond Denmark, starting with the Nordics. The platform processes data within the EU and does not use customer data to train AI models.
