How is this Solutions Architect salary data calculated?

The figures are computed from live job listings, not from surveys.
  • Source: the salary ranges employers publish in their own job listings, collected from company career pages and applicant-tracking systems.
  • Method: each listing counts once, at the midpoint of its range. Headline figures use USD listings only, and the median is the middle value, not an average.
  • Coverage: only listings paying $100k+ or more are included, so the data does not describe all Solutions Architect pay. Listings that publish no salary are not counted.
  • Freshness: closed and stale listings are removed, and the figures are recalculated as the listings change.
