I attended an event in SF about the mistreatment of non-technical employees at tech companies, and how tech people can become allies. For example, security guards in tech companies are not unionized, and many workers had experiences with their employers "forgetting" their pay, or asking them to come in overtime with very little advance notice.
There is also grassroots activism of all kinds in San Francisco, including protest against Uber for exploiting their workers under the guise of "the sharing economy", or protest of Airbnb for raising already exorbitant housing prices. You might have to look beyond the tech community to find these events, but your position on the inside gives you some unique opportunities to help. Best of luck.
