Is your tech salary in line with what companies advertise?

50% of the 45,510 open roles here do not state a salary, so it is hard to tell whether your salary or an offer is fair. This checker uses the 19,578 postings that do publish a yearly US-dollar range. Pick a category and a level, add a skill if you like, enter your number, and see the median, the typical range and where you sit.

Median advertised salary · number of postings counted. A dash means fewer than 20 postings. Yearly, US dollars, as of Nov 14, 2026. Salaries by skill and company

Where the figures come from

Every figure is calculated from job postings collected from employers’ own careers pages and re-checked every hour. On Nov 14, 2026 there were 45,510 open roles; 19,578 of them publish a yearly salary range in US dollars. Ranges in other currencies and hourly rates are left out so that all figures can be compared.

Each posting counts once, by the midpoint of its range. The median is the middle posting; the middle half runs from the 25th to the 75th percentile; “the typical posting advertises” is the median lower end and the median upper end of the ranges. Your position is found by placing your number between 15 percentile points of the group.

A group needs at least 20 postings. Below that nothing is shown, because a median of a few postings describes those few companies, not the market. The level comes from the job title; “no level in the title” means the title has no word such as Senior, Lead or Junior.

Questions about the tech salary checker

Where does the salary data come from?

From salary ranges that employers publish in their own job postings. On Nov 14, 2026 we counted 19,578 open tech roles with a yearly US-dollar range, out of 45,510 open roles. Nothing comes from surveys or from numbers submitted by users.

Why is there no figure for my selection?

Because fewer than 20 open postings match it. A median of a handful of postings says more about those few companies than about the market, so the checker shows nothing instead. Remove the skill or choose “Any level” to widen the sample.

Is the advertised range what people are actually paid?

Not necessarily. A posted range is what the employer says it is prepared to pay for the role; the final offer can land anywhere in it, and bonus and equity come on top. Use the figures as a reference point in a negotiation, not as proof of what colleagues earn.

Does it cover salaries outside the United States?

Only where the posting gives a yearly range in US dollars. Ranges in other currencies and hourly rates are left out so that every figure is comparable, so the results mostly reflect roles that are paid in dollars.
