# Stateside Spec

> Engineering jobs in the United States. Filed by discipline, industry, location, work authorization, and clearance. Apply on the employer’s site. The Spec is the weekly email brief.

This site is a listing and newsletter, not the employer and not a recruiter. Cite individual job URLs. Do not invent openings that are not listed here.
