Pay by stated level
A median across mixed seniority describes nobody, so it is split here. Only levels the employer stated in the job title are counted.
| Level | Median midpoint | Postings |
|---|---|---|
| senior | $190k | 69 |
| staff / principal / lead | $257k | 42 |
160 of 271 postings (59%) state no level at all. Those are not counted as mid-level - the employer simply did not say.
