Age counts days since the employer published the posting. Around a third of sources publish only a coarse date such as “30+ days ago”, so the older end of this distribution is less precise than the recent end. It is the most-cited signal that a role may not be actively filled — a signal, not a verdict.

Fewer than one posting in six publishes a range here, and the ones that do are not a random sample. Treat these figures as indicative of the disclosing minority, not of the market.

FAQ
Questions people ask
How many Linux jobs are open?
The count at the top is every current posting that mentions Linux, across all roles and locations we track.
What does Linux pay?
The percentile table shows the advertised range. Only postings that publish a salary are counted, and the disclosure rate is printed next to the median.
Which cities hire most for Linux?
The top locations chart ranks them by open postings.
Figures cover 174,839 postings collected from public company career pages and applicant
tracking systems, last recomputed 2026-09-02.
“Posted N days ago” counts from the date the employer published the listing, not from when we
first saw it. A posting that has been up for months is a common sign it is not being actively
filled — though a long-lived listing is a signal, not a verdict.
