Tech Jobs in Sacramento, CA

171,627 open positions · Updated daily

Sacramento, the state capital, is rapidly becoming a tech hotspot thanks to its strategic location between San Francisco and Los Angeles, a growing talent pool from nearby universities, and a supportive local government that offers tax incentives for technology firms.

The city hosts a mix of high‑growth startups, established defense contractors like Northrop Grumman and L3Harris, and emerging AI labs such as DeepMind’s research hub. Software, cybersecurity, data analytics, and fintech roles dominate the demand.

While Sacramento’s housing costs are 15% lower than San Francisco, the average salary for a senior software engineer is around $120k, making salary transparency essential for comparing offers and budgeting for neighborhoods like Midtown, East Sacramento, and South Land Park.
