Who is hiring full stack engineers in San Francisco

RefOpen currently lists 29 live full stack engineer roles in San Francisco, posted by 13 different employers, 19 of them in the last seven days. The companies posting most often right now are OpenAI, Discord and LangChain. Every one of these is a real opening pulled from the employer's own careers page or an aggregator, not a reposted listing.

What the roles are called

Job titles in this market cluster around Senior Software Engineer, Full Stack, Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer, Social Commerce, Staff Fullstack Engineer, Core Analytics and Full-Stack Software Engineer, Reinforcement Learning. Titles vary far more than the work does, so it is worth searching the family rather than one exact phrase: a "Senior Software Engineer, Full Stack" at one company and a "Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer, Social Commerce" at another are frequently the same job at the same level.

Why a referral matters for full stack engineer roles in San Francisco

San Francisco is a competitive market for this function, and with 13 employers hiring at once the same candidates are applying to many of them. A cold application lands in an applicant tracking system alongside hundreds of others and is filtered before a human sees it. A referral is submitted from inside the company, which puts the application in front of a recruiter as a named recommendation rather than another row in a queue.

Create a RefOpen profile, find the full stack engineer role you want in San Francisco, and request a referral from a verified employee at that company. You do not need an existing connection there. If nobody takes up your request, the cost is refunded in full, so the downside of asking is nothing.
