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.

USD advertised bands. Scale covers known endpoints from 80,000 to 220,000.

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 Aug 2024 to May 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. 0k52k104k156k207k Source-post dateApproximate annualized USD estimate Aug 24Dec 24Apr 25Oct 25Apr 26 Aug 2024 · 79,322 approximate USD floor · source post 41137449Aug 2024 · 130,000 approximate USD floor · source post 41139248Oct 2024 · 63,874 approximate USD floor · source post 41798410Oct 2024 · 130,000 approximate USD floor · source post 41801456Nov 2024 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42018737Dec 2024 · 70,292 approximate USD floor · source post 42311668Feb 2025 · 113,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42923919Feb 2025 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42925572Mar 2025 · 100,000 approximate USD floor · source post 43343492Apr 2025 · 160,000 approximate USD floor · source post 43552879May 2025 · 153,000 approximate USD floor · source post 43918865Jun 2025 · 105,763 approximate USD floor · source post 44166949Oct 2025 · 140,000 approximate USD floor · source post 45453035Dec 2025 · 80,000 approximate USD floor · source post 46114409Mar 2026 · 192,000 approximate USD floor · source post 47229274Apr 2026 · 153,000 approximate USD floor · source post 47605286Apr 2026 · 154,000 approximate USD floor · source post 47696673May 2026 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 47975670May 2026 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 47976501 Aug 2024May 2026

Data and method

Listings tagged with Linux that are 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
2024-08-02 to 2026-05-01
Posts used
19 listings; 19 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 5 listings and 5 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.
