What San Francisco Bay Area employers hire most
These three functions account for most of what we build in India for San Francisco Bay Area companies. The team is employed inside your own structure and stays in India.
Technology & Software Recruitment
The most established India based function for US and Australian employers, whether that is a handful of embedded engineers or a full capability centre. Leadership is sequenced ahead of the team beneath it.
- Engineering
- Platform & Cloud
AI & Machine Learning Recruitment
India has applied AI depth at scale rather than in pockets. The first two or three hires set the technical standard for everyone after them, so they get search discipline, not a volume process.
- Applied AI & ML
- Data Science & Analytics
Marketing & Growth Recruitment
Performance marketing, content, SEO and marketing operations are among the most commonly built India based functions. Execution work travels well across a timezone gap; strategy roles need more overlap than most plans allow for.
- Performance & Growth
- Brand & Category
The San Francisco Bay Area talent market
The Bay Area builds India based engineering capability more than any other US market, and increasingly as genuine product teams rather than support functions. Bengaluru and Hyderabad are the usual destinations.
The timezone gap is the largest of any US market at 12.5 to 13.5 hours, which effectively means a handover model. Companies that try to run live collaboration across it burn their India team out.
Compensation note
The largest absolute gap between US and India cost of any market, which is why Bay Area companies build India teams aggressively. It is also the largest timezone gap, so scope for handover.
