What these numbers represent
Complete USD ranges from active, approved, unexpired listings. Monthly, weekly and hourly pay is annualized using 12 months, 52 weeks and 2,080 hours. Tokens, equity and bonuses are excluded. These are advertised ranges, not employee earnings or a representative market survey.
16 role groups have qualifying samples. A posting may belong to more than one group. Sample size does not measure hiring demand. USD amounts below $1,000 or above $1 million annualized are excluded pending source review. These are data-quality checks, not limits on what a role can pay.
