Methodology

  • Source: active remote listings from 28+ global sources. Current total salary sample: 1057.
  • Privacy & cells: each cell (role × currency, or role for the eligibility data) is shown only when it has at least 5 samples. Cells below that threshold are suppressed entirely.
  • Salary is scoped to listings paying an ANNUAL salary only — hourly, monthly, weekly, and project-fee listings are EXCLUDED, not converted, because converting between pay periods requires a working-hours assumption we can't verify per listing.
  • Medians use the disclosed salary range's midpoint. Currencies are NEVER combined — a USD cell and a EUR cell are separate figures, not a blended average.
  • "Open worldwide" uses the exact same definition as our job category pages: a remote listing with no regional restriction and no geographic lock. Role is our structured site category, not a title guess.
  • The published microdata is anonymized: no company name. Aggregate statistics — not republished listings.
