# Companies hiring research assistants (2026)

> Employers whose active postings most often carry the title Research Assistant, ranked by posting volume. Shares only.

**Canonical URL:** https://jobspipe.dev/hiring/role/research-assistant

Every company on this list posts Research Assistant among its ten most frequent titles in JobsPipe's index of active postings. Companies are ordered by the volume of active postings attributed to them, largest first, and the list is capped at one hundred.

Remote share is the fraction of a company's active postings that carry a remote flag. New in 30 days is the fraction of its open roles first sighted by the crawler in the last 30 days, a cross-sectional read of how much of the backlog is fresh. Top roles are the three titles the company posts most. Every figure is a share; JobsPipe does not publish counts.

To reproduce the rows behind any company, POST to /v1/jobs/search with job_title_or set to ["Research Assistant"], status set to active, and company_name_or set to the company's name as it appears on the posting.
