San Francisco still has its own gravity. Even as the tech landscape changes, the Bay Area remains a place where new ideas get built, tested, funded, and scaled, often faster than anywhere else. Talent here is highly specialised, and expectations tend to be high on both sides of the hiring equation.

Life outside of work is a blend of city and outdoors: ocean air, weekend escapes, and a culture that values independence as much as innovation. It’s a market that continues to evolve and rarely stands still.
