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.

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 140,000 to 250,000.

What stands out in Prometheus 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.

How Prometheus 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.

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 Dec 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. 0k59k119k178k238k Source-post dateApproximate annualized USD estimate Dec 24Aug 25Dec 25May 26 Dec 2024 · 165,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42307199Jan 2025 · 220,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42579526Jan 2025 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42580522Jan 2025 · 140,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42648310Jun 2025 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 44166797Aug 2025 · 140,000 approximate USD floor · source post 44760412Sep 2025 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 45117469Oct 2025 · 160,000 approximate USD floor · source post 45443116Dec 2025 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 46113346Feb 2026 · 61,633 approximate USD floor · source post 46869428Feb 2026 · 190,000 approximate USD floor · source post 46906861Mar 2026 · 192,000 approximate USD floor · source post 47229274May 2026 · 88,568 approximate USD floor · source post 47981811Sep 2026 · 180,000 approximate USD floor · source post 49527209Oct 2026 · 175,000 approximate USD floor · source post 50033036 Dec 2024Oct 2026

Other technologies named together

Which other technologies appeared in these posts?

For each month, this lists the three most-mentioned other technologies and how many posts named each one. A post can mention several technologies, so these counts overlap and do not add up to the number of posts.

Data and method

Listings tagged with the normalized technology Prometheus. These figures describe advertisements, not verified employee earnings or currently open jobs.

Dates of included posts
2024-12-03 to 2026-10-10
Posts used
15 listings; 15 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.
