The latest layoffs are poised to erase **600 Bay Area tech jobs**, according to WARN notices posted by the state Employment Development Department (EDD). **Cisco Systems** has disclosed plans to slash **471 jobs** in the Bay Area, while **Bill.com** has revealed its decision to chop **129 positions** in the region. Both companies are headquartered in San Jose. The Cisco layoffs will eliminate 236 jobs in San Jose, 154 in Milpitas, and 81 in San Francisco. All the Bill.com staffing reductions will occur in San Jose. These planned job cuts serve as a reminder of the **upheaval affecting the Bay Area tech sector** as it wrestles with post-COVID staffing strategies and the uncertainty ushered in by the **artificial intelligence revolution**. Even worse, the pace of tech industry job cuts has **quickened** in recent months. Over nearly half of 2026, tech companies have disclosed decisions to eliminate about **10,900 jobs** in the Bay Area. During the similar first six months of 2025, tech companies revealed intentions to jettison roughly **4,700 positions** — meaning layoffs have more than doubled year-over-year. Ominously, the disclosed tech industry job cuts in the Bay Area over just the first six months of 2026 have **already topped the total for all of 2025**, which produced 10,170 tech sector layoffs. The Cisco layoffs are slated to occur July 13, while Bill.com's staffing reductions are scheduled for Aug. 24. ![Bill.com logo on the tech company's office building at 6220 America Center Drive in north San Jose.

But rather than diving into a formal course, she took a different approach: she turned her career into a **science lab**, experimenting with AI tools like a mad scientist. The result? A UX design role at Adobe working on agentic AI experiences. ### Key Takeaways - **Start small and experiment**: Kumar committed to one hour a day with Cursor for seven days, resulting in a functional AI prototype—a dance gesture detection game. - **Embrace quirky projects**: Instead of building safe case studies, she created a Matcha recipe generator using Gemini and Claude, which helped her stand out in interviews. - **Build a support network**: She learned with friends who held her accountable and later led AI playground workshops for designers at Adobe. ### From Art School to AI at Adobe Kumar, a 25-year-old product designer in India, landed a role at Meta right out of college in 2022. By 2024, she felt the industry shift and wanted to learn AI design skills. With no formal machine learning background, she took her education into her own hands through **YouTube videos and friends**. She treated her learning like a formula: **one hour of Cursor a day + seven days = a functional AI prototype**. Her first project was a game that detected and tracked dance gestures, which helped her develop a **vibe coding workflow** using different AI tools for different processes. ### The 'Mad Scientist' Approach Instead of playing it safe, Kumar unleashed her creativity. She built a tool that generated Matcha recipes, using Gemini to refine prompts and Claude to vibe-code the product. These **quirky experiments** not only taught her the AI landscape but also made her interviews memorable. Interviewers laughed and engaged with her tools, sparking conversations about matcha flavors. After four months of intentional experimentation, she landed a UX design job at Adobe in November 2025, focusing on **agentic AI experiences** like conversational AI assistants. ### Sharing the Knowledge At Adobe, Kumar continues to experiment. Every other Friday, she leads an **AI playground workshop** for designers in India, where they test new tools and share AI-assisted workflows. This has helped her grow her leadership skills while supporting her team. Treating her career like a science lab has not only enabled her transition into AI but also made her a better designer. As she puts it, "I feel like I've mastered vibe coding, fuelled my creativity, and become a better designer."]]></description> <author>contact@remoteitjobs.app (RemoteITJobs.app)</author> <category>ai</category> <category>careergrowth</category> <category>upskilling</category> <category>vibecoding</category> <category>adobe</category> <enclosure url="https://s.yimg.com/lo/mysterio/api/6ff559074b29f03ad7d097d1054b959cc8ec53581c8ff3e775470450d1a65340/lightyear_networkapi/resizefill_w1200;quality_80;format_webp/https:%2F%2Fmedia.zenfs.com%2Fen%2Fbusiness_insider_consolidated_articles_886%2F3481335a6c6792451c3e590825860bd0" length="0" type="image/com%2Fen%2Fbusiness_insider_consolidated_articles_886%2F3481335a6c6792451c3e590825860bd0"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Gen Z's Worst Nightmare: 1 in 3 Employers Replace Entry-Level Jobs with AI]]></title> <link>https://www.remoteitjobs.app/article/gen-zs-worst-nightmare-1-in-3-employers-replace-entry-level-jobs-with-ai</link> <guid>gen-zs-worst-nightmare-1-in-3-employers-replace-entry-level-jobs-with-ai</guid> <pubDate>Fri, 26 Jun 2026 19:15:30 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[A new report from the Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC) reveals that **one-third of employers are replacing entry-level jobs with AI**, according to a survey of over 600 recruiters worldwide. More than half of the respondents recruit for Fortune 100 or Fortune 500 companies. This confirms Gen Z's fears: the first rung of the career ladder is becoming increasingly difficult to reach. **Tech roles are hit hardest**, with 40% of employers in the industry saying AI is replacing entry-level positions, followed closely by manufacturing. However, Sabrina White, senior vice president at GMAC, advises Gen Z not to avoid AI but to **learn how to use it to create business value**. She notes that historically, technology shifts change jobs more than eliminate them. ### MBA: No Longer a Guaranteed Shortcut Applications to graduate business programs jumped 13% in 2024 and 2% in 2025 as professionals seek an edge. But an MBA isn't the guaranteed career accelerator it once was. Only 13% of employers hired more MBA graduates in 2025 than the previous year. The **median starting salary for MBA graduates is estimated to slip to $120,000** from $125,000 in 2025. However, top programs still pay off: graduates from Harvard, MIT, and Wharton earn over $245,000 three years after graduation. Employers are **raising the bar** for what they expect from graduates, emphasizing the ability to navigate complexity, make decisions in uncertain environments, and translate emerging technology into business impact. ### CEOs Still Bet on Young Talent CEOs from IBM, AWS, and Waabi remain bullish on hiring young talent, arguing that early-career workers are more comfortable with AI tools and eager to learn. While employers still rank human skills like communication and problem-solving as top priorities, they expect **AI proficiency and technology skills to climb sharply in importance** over the next five years. "The future of work belongs to people who can not only command technological capability but also communicate ideas, align teams, and make decisions," says White.]]></description> <author>contact@remoteitjobs.app (RemoteITJobs.app)</author> <category>ai</category> <category>genz</category> <category>entry-leveljobs</category> <category>mba</category> <category>futureofwork</category> <enclosure url="https://fortune.com/img-assets/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/GettyImages-2207865419-e1782485649975.jpg?resize=1200,600" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Dallas-Fort Worth Hiring Surges in May 2026: AI Roles Top Fastest-Growing Jobs List]]></title> <link>https://www.remoteitjobs.app/article/dallas-fort-worth-hiring-surges-in-may-2026-ai-roles-top-fastest-growing-jobs-list</link> <guid>dallas-fort-worth-hiring-surges-in-may-2026-ai-roles-top-fastest-growing-jobs-list</guid> <pubDate>Fri, 26 Jun 2026 12:15:44 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[**Hiring across Dallas-Fort Worth rebounded in May**, part of a Texas-led uptick in a national job market that remains well below its pre-pandemic pace, according to new LinkedIn data. DFW hiring was **11.7% higher in May 2026 compared to April 2026** and was 0.5% lower compared to May 2025, according to LinkedIn’s June 2026 Workforce Report for Dallas-Fort Worth. Nationally, hiring rose 7.8% month over month in May but remained 4.8% below a year earlier and nearly 22% below its pre-pandemic level. Texas metros led the rebound: Houston was up 14.4%, Austin 12.5%, and Dallas-Fort Worth 11.7%. ## AI on Top, Infrastructure Underneath LinkedIn’s **Jobs on the Rise 2026** ranking for Dallas-Fort Worth puts **AI engineers at #1** and **AI consultants and strategists at #2** among the fastest-growing roles over the past three years. The report signals increased AI investment in the region, while roles like new home sales specialists and construction inspectors point to continued demand in the local real estate market. ## The Rest of the Top 10 - **#3: Data center technician** – ties to AI-era infrastructure, with top skills including Data Center Infrastructure, Technical Support, and Cabling. - **#4: New home sales specialist** - **#5: Construction inspector** - **#6: Strategic advisor / independent consultant** - **#7: Marketing strategist** - **#8: Founder** – not a typical hire, but reflects a rise in people starting their own businesses. - **#9: Financial consultant** - **#10: Real estate broker** ## Room for Different AI Skill Levels AI engineers in the ranking had a median of just **2.7 years of prior experience**, the lowest of any role, while AI consultants and strategists had **5.9 years**. Common prior roles for AI engineers include software engineer, data scientist, and data engineer. Top skills for AI engineers: **Large Language Models (LLM)**, **PyTorch**, and **TensorFlow**. ## How the Ranking Was Built LinkedIn analyzed millions of jobs started by members from January 2023 to July 2025, excluding internships and interim roles. The list drew comments about what’s missing: skilled trades behind AI infrastructure, like power, fiber, concrete, steel, and cooling, are not captured. ## Resources for Job Hunters Each role links to open jobs and suggested LinkedIn Learning courses. LinkedIn also offers a skills-matcher tool to help find possible job transitions based on skills similarity. ![Dallas skyline](https://via.placeholder.com/800x400?text=Dallas-Fort+Worth+Skyline)]]></description> <author>contact@remoteitjobs.app (RemoteITJobs.app)</author> <category>ai</category> <category>dallas-fortworth</category> <category>jobgrowth</category> <category>linkedin</category> <category>techhiring</category> <enclosure url="https://s24806.pcdn.co/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/LinkedIn-OBS-REPORTS-composite-image.png" length="0" type="image/png"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[AI Job Apocalypse? Not So Fast: Tech Talent Demand Surges 14% in 2026]]></title> <link>https://www.remoteitjobs.app/article/ai-job-apocalypse-not-so-fast-tech-talent-demand-surges-14-in-2026</link> <guid>ai-job-apocalypse-not-so-fast-tech-talent-demand-surges-14-in-2026</guid> <pubDate>Thu, 25 Jun 2026 12:15:32 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[The tech job market is showing surprising resilience in 2026, with **open tech job openings climbing nearly 14%** so far this year, according to TrueUp data. This challenges the narrative that AI is destroying white-collar work. TrueUp tracks job postings across 9,000 public tech companies, startups, and unicorns—ground zero for AI disruption. The data reveals a mixed but far-from-dystopian picture. ### Hardware Engineering Leads the Rebound **Hardware engineering roles jumped 52% year-to-date**, reflecting heavy investment in AI infrastructure like chips, data centers, and servers. This surge underscores the physical backbone required for the AI boom. ![Hardware engineering job openings chart](https://i.insider.com/6a3c189ce218c3b62535c37d?width=600&format=jpeg&auto=webp) ### Software Engineering: Steady but Slower Software engineering openings rose just over 2% since January, with a slowdown in recent months. The competition is fiercer, as more computer science graduates and laid-off workers flood the market. ![Software engineering job openings chart](https://i.insider.com/6a3c18d0360acd489560a71a?width=600&format=jpeg&auto=webp) ### Big Tech Holds Strong Public tech companies increased job postings by 18% year-to-date, though numbers dipped slightly from earlier in 2026. ![Big tech job postings chart](https://i.insider.com/6a3c190e360acd489560a71c?width=600&format=jpeg&auto=webp) TrueUp founder Amit Taylor describes the market as **"holding steady despite everything else happening in the tech industry."** The recovery follows a painful correction in 2022-2023, but current demand signals a healthy—if not pandemic-boom—market. **Key takeaway:** AI is reshaping tech jobs, but it's not eliminating them. Demand for talent, especially in hardware, remains strong.]]></description> <author>contact@remoteitjobs.app (RemoteITJobs.app)</author> <category>techjobs</category> <category>ai</category> <category>hiringtrends</category> <category>hardwareengineering</category> <category>softwareengineering</category> <enclosure url="https://i.insider.com/6a3c1b9ea25092c74cc9e5b9?width=1200&format=jpeg" length="0" type="image//6a3c1b9ea25092c74cc9e5b9"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Can We AI-Proof Our Jobs? Former Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo Has a Plan]]></title> <link>https://www.remoteitjobs.app/article/can-we-ai-proof-our-jobs-former-commerce-secretary-gina-raimondo-has-a-plan</link> <guid>can-we-ai-proof-our-jobs-former-commerce-secretary-gina-raimondo-has-a-plan</guid> <pubDate>Thu, 25 Jun 2026 19:15:31 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[Gina Raimondo says her family never fully recovered after her father lost his Bulova watch factory job in the 1980s to economic forces beyond his control. Decades later, the former Biden administration commerce secretary and Rhode Island governor is trying to stop **artificial intelligence** from inflicting similar pain on families across the country. Raimondo is now leading a **bipartisan effort** to AI-proof the country’s workforce. The initiative aims to prepare workers for the inevitable changes AI will bring, focusing on **retraining**, **education**, and **social safety nets** to cushion the blow. The goal is not to stop AI but to ensure that the workforce can adapt and thrive alongside it. Key components of the plan include: - **Partnerships with tech companies** to create AI training programs. - **Federal funding** for community colleges and vocational schools to update curricula. - **Portable benefits** for gig workers and freelancers affected by automation. - **AI literacy campaigns** to help workers understand and leverage new tools. Raimondo emphasizes that the U.S. has faced similar transitions before, such as the shift from manufacturing to services, and can do so again with the right policies. The plan has drawn support from both Democrats and Republicans, as well as major tech firms like Microsoft and Google. However, critics argue that the pace of AI change is unprecedented and that existing retraining programs have had mixed results. Raimondo acknowledges the challenge but insists that inaction is not an option.]]></description> <author>contact@remoteitjobs.app (RemoteITJobs.app)</author> <category>ai</category> <category>workforce</category> <category>retraining</category> <category>ginaraimondo</category> <category>jobdisplacement</category> <enclosure url="https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-apps/imrs.php?src=https://cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/wapo/PYZLQDQX7II63OMYWKVWR5MENA.jpg&w=1440" length="0" type="image/php"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Workday Faces Lawsuit Over AI Bias in Job Screening: A Landmark Case for Hiring Tech]]></title> <link>https://www.remoteitjobs.app/article/workday-faces-lawsuit-over-ai-bias-in-job-screening-a-landmark-case-for-hiring-tech</link> <guid>workday-faces-lawsuit-over-ai-bias-in-job-screening-a-landmark-case-for-hiring-tech</guid> <pubDate>Tue, 23 Jun 2026 19:15:46 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[Workday, a leading provider of AI-powered hiring software, is facing a California lawsuit that could reshape the legal landscape for AI in recruitment. The case, brought by Derek Mobley, alleges that Workday's screening tools discriminated against him based on his race, age, and disability, rejecting him from over 100 jobs. ## Key Allegations - **Discriminatory Bias**: Mobley claims Workday's AI system systematically rejected him because he is Black, over 40, and has anxiety and depression. - **Responsibility Shift**: Traditionally, employers are liable for discriminatory hiring. This case explores whether **software developers and AI vendors** should also bear responsibility. ## Legal Implications - **California Law**: Judge Rita Lin indicated she may reject Workday's attempt to dismiss claims under California employment discrimination laws, even for applicants outside the state. - **Broader Impact**: With **over 80% of US employers** and nearly all Fortune 500 companies using AI hiring tools, this case could set a precedent for regulating AI in hiring. ## The Core Issue - **Training Data Bias**: The court must examine how training data can embed historical biases, and who is accountable for the outcomes. - **Workday's Defense**: The company states, "Our technology looks only at job qualifications, not protected traits like race, age, or disability." This case is a critical test for **AI accountability** in employment, potentially forcing vendors to ensure their algorithms are fair and transparent.]]></description> <author>contact@remoteitjobs.app (RemoteITJobs.app)</author> <category>aibias</category> <category>hiringsoftware</category> <category>workdaylawsuit</category> <category>employmentdiscrimination</category> <category>airegulation</category> <enclosure url="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/yqUDvUuEyqbGb9vPDZphgN-1440-80.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> </channel> </rss>
