~$120,000 (sans benefits). It varies greatly by role and location. You can get a sense for roughly what a given role might pay by looking at ourjobpostings. As mentioned elsethread, these salaries are aimed at not being huge sacrifices for tech workers living in expensive american cities, while also not being egregiously luxurious in lower salary places like Oxford. I imagine some engineers might look at that number and think it’s low compared to their expectations, and some non-engineer Brits might think it’s quite high. I encourage you to look at the job postings for the ranges.
It sounds like the 1.5 million does not include $ on the forum team or facilitators—what does the total spending/average salary look like if you include these groups?
Ah, thanks for finding that, I posted my reply before seeing this comment.
By Forum team do you mean non-CEA moderators? We have volunteers on our team, which throws off our actual spend, but I’ve budgeted as if we have to pay for all of our moderation contracting, and have budgeted $20,000/yr. We pay moderators $40/hr, and facilitators $30/hr.
What is the average salary of the forum team?
