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 80,000 to 430,000.

How Rag 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 Aug 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. 0k62k124k186k248k Source-post dateApproximate annualized USD estimate Aug 24May 25Sep 25May 26Aug 26 Aug 2024 · 110,000 approximate USD floor · source post 41130702Sep 2024 · 130,000 approximate USD floor · source post 41440329Nov 2024 · 110,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42017851Nov 2024 · 130,000 approximate USD floor · source post 42018378May 2025 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 43858914Jun 2025 · 180,000 approximate USD floor · source post 44161112Jul 2025 · 138,814 approximate USD floor · source post 44441444Sep 2025 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 45142104Jan 2026 · 57,893 approximate USD floor · source post 46542208Feb 2026 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 46861580May 2026 · 150,000 approximate USD floor · source post 47977662Jun 2026 · 230,000 approximate USD floor · source post 48362489Jun 2026 · 190,000 approximate USD floor · source post 48365790Jul 2026 · 140,000 approximate USD floor · source post 48764956Aug 2026 · 180,000 approximate USD floor · source post 49169017Sep 2026 · 190,000 approximate USD floor · source post 49525603Sep 2026 · 190,000 approximate USD floor · source post 49528837Oct 2026 · 130,041 approximate USD floor · source post 49926511Oct 2026 · 180,000 approximate USD floor · source post 49928334Oct 2026 · 180,000 approximate USD floor · source post 49943713Oct 2026 · 80,000 approximate USD floor · source post 50063001 Aug 2024Oct 2026
