The top U.S. cities for AI-driven job hunters

AI job

Nearly half of the generative AI job postings in the past year were for roles in San Francisco, San Jose, New York, Los Angeles, Boston and Seattle.

These six AI hotspots have been identified by the Brookings Institution, which also found that San Francisco is home to 20 of the best-funded AI companies, a figure that’s more than the rest of the U.S. combined.

California is home to 35 of Forbes’ AI 50 companies, with the Bay Area and in particular, San Francisco and San Jose, comprising 60% of new generative AI jobs as of May 2023. The poster-child for generative AI, OpenAI — the founder of ChatGTP — is located here.

New York houses four top-50 AI companies, Texas is home to two, and Massachusetts has one. In New York, image and video editing company Runway, which was founded in 2018, has a suite of 30 AI-powered tools, which were actually used for some scenes in the Oscar-winning Everything Everywhere All at Once.

The Boston-based Path AI assists in the work of pathologists by scanning tissue samples using artificial intelligence, providing analysis via color coding — cancer is red, and dead cells are black, for example.

With funding for AI companies ramping up, more than one in four dollars invested in American startups this year has gone to an AI sector company according to Crunchbase. This is twice what it was a year ago, and it seems apparent that this larger share of investment in AI is going to continue.

So, if you’d like to capitalize on your existing skills in a growth sector, then the VentureBeat Job Board should be your first stop. You can find thousands of openings across hundreds of fields, such as the three AI roles below.

Arthur is deeply passionate about building technology to make AI understandable, effective, and fair. The Solutions Engineer will work with some of the world’s most innovative companies to help deploy fair, safe, and reliable ML systems.

Five or more years’ of experience in sales engineering, solutions engineering, or similar relevant experience with enterprise software products is needed, as is solid experience with software product demonstrations, technical deep-dive presentations, and technical objection handling.

As Technical Solutions Architect II – AI Security, you’ll have proven experience with selling solutions internally or directly to customers, expertise in machine learning, natural language processing, and other AI technologies, and knowledge of common AI/ML frameworks like TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn, OpenCV, etc.

You’ll also need an understanding of AI security vulnerabilities and mitigation strategies like adversarial machine learning, data poisoning, and model extraction. Demonstrated experience with software security, secure coding, or software assurance tools and techniques is preferred.

You’ll also need five years’ as an AI security solution engineer or equivalent position, and hands-on experience implementing AI/ML technologies for security use cases like threat detection, user behavior analysis, and identity verification. See all the requirements here.

Snorkel AI is redefining how people and organizations build AI applications. In the role of Machine Learning Solutions Engineers, you will act as a trusted advisor to prospective and existing customers.
