## How this ranking works

A company appears once it has at least 8 live openings in San Jose. Companies whose most recent posting anywhere is older than 90 days are excluded, so dormant boards cannot hold a position. The Remote Index band describes how the employer hires across its whole organisation, not how its San Jose roles are structured, and never affects the order.

A further 2 San Jose roles are advertised as hybrid.

### Is San Jose hiring concentrated?

The five largest employers hold 47.2% of all live San Jose openings, and the median ranked employer has 22 open San Jose roles. San Jose is more top-heavy than the typical tracked city, where the top five hold 44.2%: a handful of boards set the pace and a candidate who ignores them misses most of the market.

### Which industries are hiring in San Jose?

The industries hiring hardest in San Jose are Semiconductors & Electronics (199 roles, 19.7%), Mobility & Automotive (150 roles, 14.8%), Construction & Built Environment (90 roles, 8.9%).

### What level are San Jose jobs?

59.2% of live San Jose titles read as senior, managerial, director or executive level, and the single largest named band is Senior with 243 roles. Levels are derived from job titles, so a title that states no level counts as unspecified rather than being guessed at.

### Is hiring in San Jose growing or shrinking?
