  With perl's use cases, I would be a bit surprised to see a job specifically for programming in perl. It's a tool that you use to support your other infrastructure. It's not a tool that you generally use to build up that infrastructure. Similarly, I don't expect to see many jobs openings for wrenchers, but I fully expect a mechanic being hired someplace to be able to use a wrench.

    > see a job specifically for programming in perl That was exactly seen some twenty years ago. Perl as used to build infrastructure, like entire back-ends for sites and whatever. You don't see those jobs anymore.

  There are generally no job openings for engineers anywhere, because they all rely on headhunters and recruiters. Try https://perl.careers/ https://perl.careers/ for example. I first heard of them from this slide deck that any developer, regardless of tech stack, should read: https://de.slideshare.net/perlcareers/how-to-write-a-developer-cvrsum-that-will-get-you-hired https://de.slideshare.net/perlcareers/how-to-write-a-develop...
