The software industry is one of the hottest in the U.S right now for jobs. It is a very attractive industry to get into if you are coming out of college, as the job market is very stable. Every company these days has at least a website, which means they need someone to manage it.

This makes it easy to find a software job anywhere you go. But when it comes to certain states, some companies have a stronger presence than others.

Data

The data was collected by checking job postings in each state on Indeed. Here are the companies with the most software jobs in each state, visualized:

There are a few familiar companies showing up in multiple spots. Amazon has the most states covered with 7 (California, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, Tennessee, Virginia, Washington). As you can see, they dominate the entire west coast. Chase and Lockheed Martin are the only other companies with more than two states dominated.

Here is the full data, with the top 3 in each state included. If any have more than 3 that means there was a tie.
