New Jersey employers in pharma, finance, and insurance typically expect hands-on SQL and BI platform experience, which candidates build through academic projects, internships, or adjacent analyst roles before transitioning into full engineering positions.
How much do business intelligence engineers make in New Jersey?

Which companies hire business intelligence engineers in New Jersey?
Employers hiring business intelligence engineers in New Jersey right now include BD, Wiz International, and AIG, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. New Jersey's dense concentration of pharmaceutical headquarters and financial services firms means demand is unusually consistent, with large internal data teams that hire at multiple experience levels throughout the year.
Which New Jersey cities have the most business intelligence engineer jobs?
The cities with the most business intelligence engineer openings in New Jersey are Edison, Franklin Lakes, and Princeton Junction. That distribution reflects the concentration of corporate headquarters, financial services firms, and major pharma campuses across the Newark-Jersey City corridor and the Princeton-area Route 1 technology belt, both of which support large internal analytics and data engineering teams.

About 67% of business intelligence engineer openings tied to New Jersey are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting how naturally the role fits distributed work.
