Advertised compensation

Each row compares roles with the same currency, pay period and employment type and pay basis. Salary and on-target earnings (OTE) are kept separate. The figures are the median advertised lower and upper limits, calculated separately; they are not an expected salary for an individual candidate. Seniority and hiring locations vary.

71 of 133 listings disclose pay. 41 have one complete salary or OTE range with a known currency and period. Only groups meeting the sample requirements appear below.

30 roles · 9 employers

A row needs at least ten roles from three employers. One listing contributes one observation. Separate geographic tiers, open-ended ranges, total compensation and net pay are excluded. A stated salary can be included when bonuses or equity are offered separately; OTE is shown in its own row. Currencies are not converted and hourly or monthly pay is not annualized.

Employer coverage

26 employers are represented in the current directory. ElevenLabs accounts for 20 listings (15%). The five largest employers account for 51.1%. Changes in which employers we monitor can change these totals. Directory growth alone does not establish growth in the wider job market.

Where employers can hire

Countries explicitly named in the current listings, including roles restricted to a state or province. A role can appear in several countries. Check each listing for state, work authorization and timezone restrictions.

0 roles state worldwide hiring without a specific country list. 29 give a broader region or do not name a supported country. These are kept separate from the country counts.
