Who Is Hiring Software Engineers in 2026? 94 Companies, Counted

DataUpdated 4 min read

On 8 November 2026 we counted the open software-engineering roles on the public job boards of 101 companies. 94 were hiring, with 3,428 roles between them. Ten companies hold half of those roles, led by Anduril (330), SpaceX (299) and OpenAI (251).

Below are the findings, then the full list of companies, then exactly how we counted. The counts are free to download.

A few companies hold half the roles

The ten companies with the most open roles account for 1,669 of the 3,428, or 49%. The top three are a defence company, a space company and an AI lab: Anduril (330), SpaceX (299) and OpenAI (251).

After them come Roblox (162), Databricks (152), Stripe (128) and Okta (108). 32 of the 94 companies have fewer than ten open software roles.

Where the roles are

Most roles are in the US: 2,225, or 65%. The UK and India have about 225 each, Canada 208, and the rest of Europe 185.

Outside the US, a handful of employers carry each country. In the UK, Deliveroo (39) and Graphcore (34) lead. In India, Okta (44), Databricks (39) and Zscaler (27). In Canada, Affirm (45), Okta (27) and Lyft (27). In the rest of Europe, MongoDB (18), Stripe (17) and Toast (17).

Remote roles are a minority, but some companies are almost all remote

598 roles, about one in six, are listed as remote. They are concentrated: at Coinbase (79 of 83), Affirm (74 of 80) and Reddit (70 of 74), nearly every software role is remote. Supabase, ElevenLabs, Twilio and Vanta list all of theirs as remote.

If you need remote work, start with the companies that hire that way by default rather than hoping for an exception elsewhere.

Early-career openings are rare

Only 114 roles, about 3%, are titled as internships or entry-level jobs. Lyft (10), Pinterest (9) and Databricks (8) have the most; Figma, Epic Games and Twitch have 6 each.

40% of titles state no level at all, so some of those will suit early-career engineers. Read the posting before ruling a role out.

How to use this list

A company with many open roles is not automatically a better bet; competition depends on the role. Use the list to find employers that hire for your specialty and location, then read their board directly.

  • Filter by what you do: the specialty counts beside each company show where its roles are.
  • Check where the company hires before applying from another country.
  • Make your CV match the posting you apply to. Resymetry's free check reads your CV against a real job ad and quotes the lines that match or are missing.

How we counted

We make Resymetry, a CV checker. None of these companies pays us or is affiliated with us; we counted their public listings ourselves.

We read the public Greenhouse, Lever and Ashby job boards of 101 companies, mostly tech, on 8 November 2026. These are the same boards behind our role pages. We read job titles and locations only, never the text of a posting.

A role counts as software engineering when its title names software work: software, developer, frontend, backend, full-stack, mobile, SRE, DevOps, platform, machine learning, data or security engineering, firmware and similar. Sales, solutions and support engineers, and hardware, facilities and IT-network titles, are left out.

A role advertised in several cities counts once: we count distinct titles per company. A role is remote when its location says so or the board marks it as remote work; hybrid roles are not counted as remote.

This is a sample, not the whole market. It leans towards larger tech companies and the US. Google, Meta, Amazon, Apple and Microsoft run their own hiring systems rather than these boards, so they are not in it.

Download the counts: CSV. Counts only, no posting text. Free to reuse with credit to Resymetry (CC BY 4.0).

Why are Google, Meta and Amazon not on the list?

They run their own hiring systems instead of the public Greenhouse, Lever and Ashby boards we read, so they are not in this count. Our guides to how they hire are linked below.
