Tech Jobs in Texas

57,436 open positions · Updated daily

Texas stands out as a tech hub because it combines a growing startup ecosystem with major corporate presences, all under a no state income tax regime. Austin’s Silicon Hills, Dallas’s burgeoning fintech scene, and Houston’s energy‑tech innovation attract talent nationwide, while the state’s investment in high‑speed fiber and data centers keeps infrastructure ahead of demand.

Tech talent in Texas spans software engineering, data science, cloud architecture, and cybersecurity, but the region also fuels niche markets: aerospace and defense in El Paso, electric‑vehicle manufacturing in Austin, and biotech research near Houston’s Texas Medical Center. Companies such as Dell Technologies, T‑Mobile, Tesla, SpaceX, Google, Apple, and IBM have large campuses, while hundreds of startups in Austin’s South Congress and Dallas’s Deep Ellum keep the pulse rapid and diverse.

Housing costs differ by city—Austin’s median home price exceeds $600k, Dallas remains around $350k, and Houston offers more affordable options—but overall living expenses are lower than the national average. Transparent salary listings let job seekers weigh compensation against local cost, ensuring fair pay and informed relocation decisions across the state’s varied markets.

Texas offers a wide array of roles, from software engineering, data analytics, and AI research to cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity, and automotive software for Tesla and other OEMs. The state’s energy sector also hires for distributed energy resource management and smart grid analytics, while biotech hubs in Houston demand bioinformatics and computational biology expertise.
Are tech jobs in Texas remote or on-site?
Remote work remains common, especially for roles in software development and cloud services.

Key employers include Dell Technologies (Austin), T‑Mobile (Dallas), Tesla (Austin), SpaceX (Hawthorne but with Texas facilities), Amazon (Austin), Google (Austin), Apple (Austin), IBM (Dallas), and local giants like AT&T (Dallas) and ExxonMobil (Houston). Startups such as Okta, Ring, and Pivotal also contribute significantly to the talent landscape.
What are the salary expectations for tech roles in Texas?
Salaries vary by city and role: software engineers in Austin earn $110k–$160k, Dallas averages $100k–$150k, and Houston ranges $90k–$140k.

Transparent listings on JobTransparency help benchmark these figures against local cost.
How can I relocate to Texas for a tech job?
Start by researching cities that match your cost‑of‑living preferences—Austin for a vibrant startup scene, Dallas for lower housing, or Houston for energy tech. Use JobTransparency’s salary data to estimate net income after housing and taxes. Leverage local networking events, tech meetups, and online communities, and consider relocation packages offered by employers such as housing stipends or moving allowances.
