Go east, programmers

Dow Jones

The hottest job markets for software developers and programmers now are thousands of miles from San Francisco and Silicon Valley.

The greater Washington, DC, and New York areas have more job openings for software developers than those California markets do, as nontechnology companies load up on engineering talent while startups and tech behemoths cut back.

There were 2,369 software-engineering job postings in the Frisco metro area, and 2,084 around San José, which includes Silicon Valley, at the end of last year. Some 3,815 were posted in the Washington area, and 3,325 in the New York area at that time, according to Vertis AI Inc., a workplace-data company.

Software engineer postings have declined in the San Francisco and San José areas since a peak in the first half of 2022, Vertis said.
