What moves your salary inside the range
Two engineers with the same title can sit at opposite ends of the table. This is what separates them.
English level
It's the filter that opens or closes the roles paying in dollars. Without it, your ceiling drops fast.
Depth in the stack
Knowing a framework is not the same as keeping a production system alive with it.
Who hires you
A global product company and a local agency pay very differently for the same work.
How you're assessed
A real technical assessment places you by what you can build, not by the years on your CV.
For developers
Find out where you actually land in that range
Knowing what the market pays is half the job.
The other half is getting your level validated and landing in front of the companies paying that range.
- 1
Create your profile
Your stack, your experience and your English level, once.
- 2
Get technically vetted
A technical assessment sets your real seniority, not the one on your CV.
- 3
Negotiate with real numbers
You walk into the interview knowing what your profile is worth.
