The market right now
Alion currently lists 237 open Hardware Engineer jobs in Mountain View from 37 companies. 73 of them were posted or refreshed in the last seven days. 32 of the employers have posted something in the last three months, which is the pool worth watching if you are starting a search now. 12 of the 237 carry the marks of a stale or abandoned posting - open far beyond the usual time to fill, reposted, or on a board that mostly never closes a role - and are marked as likely inactive; the list can hide them.

What these roles pay
