Public HN “Who is Hiring” posts that include salary details

What salary details are stated?

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.

Advertised offer bands

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 36,000 to 225,000.

What stands out in PHP posts

Counts are based on posts naming this technology. A post may describe multiple openings; its role-level label applies to the post, not necessarily each opening.

Other technologies named together

How PHP 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

PHP is a server-side language with both dynamic and declared typing

PHP is dynamically typed by default, while declarations can constrain function arguments, return values, and properties. The language reference includes classes, interfaces, traits, exceptions, generators, and other core features. A PHP tag does not by itself identify a framework, CMS, or application architecture.

Compare PHP listings with explicit framework, database, and frontend mentions. One post may include PHP alongside several technologies, so co-tag groups overlap. Role wording and source dates help distinguish maintenance of existing sites from building APIs or larger applications; the language tag alone cannot.

  • Does the listing name a framework, CMS, or API style?
  • Which database and frontend technologies appear with PHP?

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. 0k54k108k162k216k Source-post dateApproximate annualized USD estimate Jul 24Nov 24Feb 25Jul 25Jan 26Apr 26Oct 26 Jul 2024 · 85,933 approximate USD floor · source post 40904503Aug 2024 · 110,000 approximate USD floor · source post 41131818Sep 2024 · 110,000 approximate USD floor · source post 41439290Nov 2024 · 174,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42018600Nov 2024 · 175,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42021741Nov 2024 · 120,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42089585Dec 2024 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42308486Jan 2025 · 123,266 approximate USD floor · source post 42583382Feb 2025 · 140,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42927903Apr 2025 · 175,000 approximate USD floor · source post 43549356May 2025 · 50,000 approximate USD floor · source post 43867747May 2025 · 120,000 approximate USD floor · source post 43896270Jul 2025 · 50,000 approximate USD floor · source post 44441548Aug 2025 · 36,000 approximate USD floor · source post 44869638Nov 2025 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 45834556Jan 2026 · 90,000 approximate USD floor · source post 46481959Feb 2026 · 200,000 approximate USD floor · source post 46889635Mar 2026 · 80,000 approximate USD floor · source post 47225481Apr 2026 · 80,000 approximate USD floor · source post 47610945May 2026 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 47976501May 2026 · 99,815 approximate USD floor · source post 47976670Sep 2026 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 49531646Oct 2026 · 100,000 approximate USD floor · source post 49922829Oct 2026 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 49929200Oct 2026 · 134,450 approximate USD floor · source post 49930868 Jul 2024Oct 2026

Dates of included posts
2024-07-08 to 2026-10-02
Posts used
25 listings; 25 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 10 listings and 10 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.
