How long to spend at my new job without being considered a “job hopper”

I appreciate given my work history and tenors at prior firms I might be considered a flight risk to future employers so would love input from everybody. Job 1 is immediately after earning my bachelors /

Job 1: 11 months, left as analyst Job 2: 1yr 10months, left as a sr. Analyst Job 3: current job, brought in as associate Thanks all
