So is $250K the salary for every location in the US or just for SV/NYC?
Honest question; my lair is a remote beach paradise.
- seneca 3y ago$250k is about right for a Principal "DevOps Enginner" for a company in a major city. Principal engineers are well paid, and SREs (what people often mean when they say DevOps eng) are often the highest paid engineers at a company. You wouldn't get this in small or midsized towns in the US.
- cscurmudgeon 3y ago> SREs (what people often mean when they say DevOps eng) are often the highest paid engineers at a company Nope. It is usually the higher stack eng.
- seneca 3y agoWhat do you mean by "higher stack" here? SREs being highest paid is true for my anecdotal knowledge and what I've seen in salary surveys. I'd be interested in updating my understanding though.
- cscurmudgeon 3y agoMy bad, I think you are right. I did some more digging and couldn't find stats supporting this either way. I was thinking more ML eng but it doesn't seem that widespread.
- iepathos 3y agoThat's just in SV/NYC. Average is a bit lower, range is like 180k-300k in the US. Glassdoor has stats you can find here https://www.glassdoor.com/Salaries/principal-devops-engineer-salary-SRCH_KO0,25.htm https://www.glassdoor.com/Salaries/principal-devops-engineer...
