$155K median annual compensation.

The middle 50% of disclosed annual compensation runs from $126K to $186K for United States.

• $126K — 25th percentile
• $186K — 75th percentile
• 272 — usable salaries (272 qualified job ads · 0 approved submissions)

Percentiles use usable salary observations. Disclosure coverage uses active qualified job ads as its denominator, so those figures are related but not the same cohort.

The leading entries in this view are SRE / Reliability, Platform, Linux / Systems. That ranking is calculated from the same dated snapshot as the attached visual.

Interpretation: disclosed job-ad compensation is a market signal, not a guarantee for an individual offer.

How it was built: Annualized salary midpoints from active qualified job ads and approved anonymous submissions. Currencies are normalized to USD for cross-market comparison.

I use this as a directional view of the market rather than a prediction. The useful part is comparing the same definitions consistently over time—and checking the underlying live roles before acting on a headline or changing a career decision.

Scope: United States. Based on 272 usable salary observations, updated 2026-08-25.

Is this salary range realistic for your market and seniority?
