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 Oct 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. 0k58k116k174k232k Source-post dateApproximate annualized USD estimate Oct 24May 25Mar 26Sep 26 Oct 2024 · 110,000 approximate USD floor · source post 41803072Mar 2025 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 43248687Apr 2025 · 100,000 approximate USD floor · source post 43572754May 2025 · 125,000 approximate USD floor · source post 43865439Jun 2025 · 52,882 approximate USD floor · source post 44193494Dec 2025 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 46123544Mar 2026 · 170,000 approximate USD floor · source post 47234970Jun 2026 · 160,000 approximate USD floor · source post 48454717Aug 2026 · 140,000 approximate USD floor · source post 49175131Sep 2026 · 92,543 approximate USD floor · source post 49608356Oct 2026 · 215,000 approximate USD floor · source post 49922850Oct 2026 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 49994263 Oct 2024Oct 2026

Data and method

Listings tagged with Linux that are not marked remote. The mark reflects post wording, not a verified workplace or pay effect. These figures describe advertisements, not verified employee earnings or currently open jobs.

Dates of included posts
2024-10-10 to 2026-10-07
Posts used
12 listings; 12 valid salary-minimum observations
What we compare
Median annualized estimate of advertised salary minimums
Currency conversion
Approximate USD using ECB daily reference rates as of 2026-10-09.

Fewer than 30 usable salary amounts are available, so we do not show a group median. Check the individual offers instead.

2026 includes 6 listings and 6 usable amounts. Its median is withheld below 30 usable amounts. This year overlaps the full history; it is not an independent sample or evidence of a pay trend.
