Mostly adtech (Nielsen), cybersecurity, finance, and insurance. More esoteric industries over in St Pete.

Yeah St Pete is highly underrated in FL tech. Lot of interesting tech companies in the downtown core. I use to work for a Shopify-esque e-commerce platform that was built with React and Go in 2014. It was my first professional job after doing various jquery freelance work for a year prior.

I learnt quite a bit there about proper software engineering.

It makes me extremely happy to see the company still kicking around, with mostly the same people still but now in leadership positions.

Any notable hedge funds in the megalopolis? St Pete area included
I've heard Citadel has an office on Water Street in Tampa. Raymond James in St Pete of course, not a hedge fund though.
