AI Jobs in the United States (2026)

Two things distinguish the US slice from the rest of TixelJobs: its size and its low remote share. As of September 2026 the hub holds about 2,300 live AI listings based in the United States, 248 of them posted in the past week, and only 36 percent are remote against 57 percent on the machine learning engineer hub and 64 percent for data engineering. Office and hybrid roles dominate, and the freshest listings tend to be tied to a metro.

Machine learning engineering is the biggest category with 585 listings, followed by data engineering (173), robotics and embodied AI (152) and MLOps and ML infrastructure (131). Anduril and Waymo are the two heaviest posters at 123 and 112 open roles, then Roblox and xAI at 41 each, Lila Sciences at 34 and Pinterest at 31. Titles run from Senior AI Engineer and Sr. Data Scientist II to Senior Product Manager for AI Content Safety and Director of Product for machine learning platforms, so the hub is not only engineering.

Seniority runs higher here than on most country pages: 474 listings are staff or principal and 376 are lead, manager or architect, together four in ten of the levelled roles, with 729 mid level and 545 senior making up the rest. Nineteen percent of listings state a salary, and the median midpoint among them is about $196,000 a year. Because US employers disclose pay more often than those elsewhere, US listings make up the large majority of the site salary hubs.

For a targeted search, start with the city hubs: /ai-jobs-san-francisco, /ai-jobs-new-york, /ai-jobs-seattle and /ai-jobs-boston each carry their own counts. Then apply the level filter, and set a minimum salary if you only want priced listings; /ai-jobs-150k and /ai-jobs-200k are that view already built. Candidates who need sponsorship should check /visa-sponsorship-ai-jobs rather than relying on the country filter alone.
