SF · Hardware · A Demigod project.
Software ate the world from this city, and now the city is building the world back. Robots are welded in SoMa, satellites are assembled in the Mission, chips are taped out in SoMa lofts, and fusion hardware is bolted together near the shipyard. This is the map: every hardware company we can verify in San Francisco, what they are hiring for, and the local knowledge you need to build physical things here.
99 hardware companies with a San Francisco presence: robotics, satellites, medical devices, chips, sensors, energy, and the machines that make machines. Each entry shows the company, what it builds, its stage, and open roles we have observed. Browse the directory.
