β οΈ Important context about these salaries
These salaries include total compensation. The figures include base salary plus bonuses, stock options, benefits, and other perks, though not every company can offer or match all compensation types.
Many factors affect salary: Your specific skills, negotiation ability, timing, company funding stage, team size, project complexity, and even the hiring manager's budget can all impact your offer.
Salary isn't everything: Consider work-life balance, learning opportunities, company culture, career growth potential, visa sponsorship, and team quality when evaluating opportunities.
Sample size matters: Some categories have limited data points. Use this as a starting point for research, not as absolute market truth.
