Tech Jobs in Northwest Suburbs
32,906 open positions · Updated daily
The Northwest Suburbs, spanning Evanston, Wilmette, Northbrook, and Glenview, have surged as a tech hotspot thanks to a blend of top‑tier research from Northwestern University, a thriving life‑sciences corridor, and a growing number of cloud‑native firms such as Google and Accenture. Proximity to Chicago’s finance hub plus a strong network of venture capital in the region gives local talent immediate access to high‑growth opportunities.
Software engineers, data scientists, and cybersecurity specialists are in demand at companies ranging from Medtronic’s digital‑health platform in nearby Dublin to Cigna’s AI‑driven claims analytics in Evanston. Start‑ups like Peak Games and larger enterprises such as Microsoft and Salesforce maintain on‑site offices in Northbrook and Highland Park, while remote‑first teams at Shopify and Atlassian hire from the suburbs.
While the median household income in the area is above national averages, the cost of living – especially housing – is high, with average home prices near $400,000. Salary transparency on Job Transparency lets candidates compare offers from firms like Accenture ($110K–$140K for mid‑level developers) against local living costs, ensuring they make informed decisions before moving or negotiating.
