Hawaii's high cost of living means salaries go less far than on the mainland. Remote roles for mainland companies can offset this gap.
TEKsystems — Honolulu, Hawaii
Hawaii's analyst market is limited in volume but offers unique opportunities. Honolulu is where virtually all analyst jobs are located. The tourism industry (Hawaii Visitors & Convention Bureau, hotel chains, airlines) creates demand for hospitality and tourism analytics. The US military's Pacific Command (INDOPACOM) and multiple bases create defense analyst positions, often requiring security clearances. Healthcare (The Queen's Health Systems, Hawaii Pacific Health) and state government round out the market. The University of Hawaii system also employs research analysts. The biggest shift has been remote work — many Hawaii-based analysts now work for mainland tech companies while living in the islands, effectively accessing mainland salaries with a Hawaiian lifestyle.
