Across 116 postings that state a pay range, the median midpoint is $229,800. The middle 50% sits between $187,200 and $255,600, and the 90th percentile is $290,750. All figures are annualised and converted to USD.
116 of the postings we read from greenhouse carried a range on the day we measured (2026-10-24). The rest did not publish pay at all, so they are not in these numbers.
engineering is the largest family in this sample (37 postings, median $243,000). The table above lists every family we saw and the highest individual ranges.
No. This is what the company itself published in its job postings, normalised to a yearly USD range. Real offers vary by level, location and equity, and many postings omit pay entirely.
These 116 rows are part of one CSV covering every company we read: the full dataset (salary-ranges-full.csv) under CC BY 4.0. Or pull it into Python:

import salaryranges
salaryranges.by_company("scaleai")
