Golang posts with salary details

114 job posts mention Golang and include salary information.

A post can mention several technologies. These figures describe advertised starting amounts, not what employees were paid.

Approximate annual USD amounts from the lower end of advertised ranges. The median is the middle amount. These are advertised figures, not verified pay.

Compare 2026 with all years

Compare the lower end of advertised salary ranges, estimated in USD per year. The bars show the middle 50% of amounts; the white line marks the median.

Advertised starting amounts

Each band shows the 25th to 75th percentile of advertised annual minimum estimates. Both groups use the same approximate USD scale.

How specific are the advertised salary amounts?

Each post is grouped by the salary details extracted from it: a range, one exact amount, a minimum, or values that could not form a usable range. Extraction can miss details, so check the original post.

Each panel has a separate scale in the source currency. A band shows its stated lower and upper amounts; a marker shows a minimum with no upper amount. Pay period is not preserved in the listing record. These are historical advertisements, not confirmed current vacancies.

How Golang posts overlap with other technologies

Each row counts posts naming that technology; a post can appear in more than one row. Salary figures are approximate annualized USD estimates of advertised minimums, not full offer ranges or employee pay.

Approximate annualized USD estimates of advertised minimums are shown only when there are at least 30 comparable posts. “Not shown” means fewer than 30.

How to read these comparisons

Go and Golang refer to the same compiled language

Go is a statically typed, compiled language with a standard toolchain and module system. The official documentation organizes code into packages collected by modules; goroutines and channels provide language-level concurrency tools. Concurrency describes structuring independent work and does not by itself prove that a task runs in parallel.

Go posts often describe services, command-line tools, or infrastructure software, but the tag alone cannot identify a product domain. Compare Go-only posts with those that also mention cloud services, containers, or databases. Keep the source role wording visible because “Go engineer” can cover very different responsibilities.

  • Are these roles building network services, platform tools, or command-line programs?
  • Which infrastructure or storage tags co-occur with Go?

Starting-salary history

Advertised minimums over time

Each dot is one post’s approximate USD estimate of its advertised minimum, linked to the source post. The chart shows up to the 120 newest comparable estimates, from Jul 2024 to Oct 2026; older months remain in the table, so a missing dot does not mean there were no posts. Monthly summaries appear only with at least 30 comparable estimates. Values are approximate annualized USD estimates of advertised minimums, not full offer ranges or employee pay. They use a common comparison basis, not historical exchange rates or inflation. The mix of companies, recorded role levels, and currencies can change month to month.

Approximate annualized USD estimates of advertised minimums by source-post date Individual linked post floors appear as dots. Eligible month summaries show the p25 to p75 interval and a median mark. The vertical axis is approximate USD and begins at zero. Months without a valid point have no dot. 0k81k162k243k324k Source-post dateApproximate annualized USD estimate Jul 24Oct 24Jan 25Apr 25Jul 25Oct 25Jan 26Apr 26Jul 26Oct 26 Jul 2024 · 185,000

Approximate USD comparison

Distribution of advertised minimums

Approximate annualized USD estimates of each post’s advertised minimum, not the employer’s full offer band. The middle half of observed minimums runs from $100k to $160k across 114 comparable estimates.

Advertised minimum distribution, approximate USD per year

The line spans the lowest to highest advertised minimum. The highlighted band spans the 25th to 75th percentiles, and the marker shows the median. Exact values follow.

Low $36kMedian $150kHigh $300k

Highlighted band: p25 $100k to p75 $160k. All values describe advertised minimums, not the upper ends of offer bands.

Role level recorded on the posts

Posts grouped by recorded role level

Each group uses the role-level label recorded for the post. One post may describe several openings, so the label may not apply to every position in the advertisement.
