Tech Jobs in Washington DC
107,894 open positions · Updated daily
Washington DC has become a hotbed for tech talent thanks to a unique mix of federal agencies, defense contractors, and a growing startup scene. Companies like Palantir, Cloudflare, and OpenGov leverage the city’s proximity to policymakers, while giants such as Amazon, Google, and Capital One maintain large engineering hubs in the area. The concentration of cybersecurity firms—Civis Analytics, Palantir, and Booz Allen Hamilton—offers a steady stream of roles that combine software development with national‑security expertise.
The tech ecosystem in DC spans multiple verticals. Fintech leaders such as Capital One and SoFi build payment platforms; defense contractors like Lockheed Martin and Raytheon develop embedded systems; data‑analytics outfits such as Civis Analytics and The Insightful Data focus on government datasets; and civic‑tech startups such as OpenGov and CivicSource deliver open‑data dashboards for municipalities. The city’s talent pool is further enriched by research labs at the National Institutes of Health and the Department of Energy, which often recruit software engineers and data scientists for high‑impact projects.
Living in the nation’s capital comes with a high cost of living—average rent for a one‑bedroom in Dupont Circle or Georgetown tops $2,400/month, and utilities plus transportation add another $400–$500. Salary transparency becomes essential when negotiating offers, allowing candidates to compare market rates for software engineers (average $115k–$140k), cybersecurity analysts ($110k–$130k), and product managers ($105k–$125k) against local expenses and to ensure a comfortable standard of living.
