Seattle: Hiring, Funding And Leadership Signals

Every update we hold that a source placed in Seattle: 67 updates from 18 sources, across 51 employers. Each one links to the filing or report that makes the claim. These are counts of documents we have read, so they measure what we have found and can cite, not everything that happened. They also include the routine officer filings the tracker sets aside by default, so its figure for this place is lower than the one above.

Covering 2 Jan 2026 to 27 Aug 2026

67 updates tracked
51 employers
18 sources
$490M disclosed funding

$490,267,543 disclosed across 29 funding updates. Totals cover the 28 of 29 funding updates that are money the employer raised, stated in US dollars. We leave out amounts in other currencies rather than convert them at a rate nobody published. We also leave out money that moved for another reason: a sale price, a fund close, a company spending rather than raising, government funding, a pledge.

Updates are grouped by the city name a source printed. We place 61 of the 67 here in the United States. 6 name a place of the same name in another country.

Employers We Hold The Most On

Ranked by how many updates we hold, then by how many independent sources are behind them. That is a measure of our own coverage rather than of an employer's size. Each name links to everything we hold for that employer.

    Adding Roles Growing and expanding

    Adaptive Biotechnologies's job board listed 6 more active postings in remote roles than our previous scan (job board: 16 to 22)

    A board that grows week on week is the earliest public evidence of hiring intent an employer produces: it moves before any announcement and before any filing. Treat the direction as the reliable part and the exact count as approximate, since roles are reposted, split across locations and withdrawn without notice.
