Every open incident response engineer role we track is on this page - nothing is held back behind a sign-up. The city chips read the employer’s own location line; a listing that names no city we can resolve stays searchable but sits out of them.
Open to remote only? 8 of the 10 incident response engineer listings that publish a work model came back remote-first, and 2 more are hybrid. The other 17 say nothing either way - that field is one only some boards publish.
Posted pay only - no estimates
What the listings actually printed.
Every figure here comes from a live posting with a stated annual base range. Nothing is modelled, inferred, or averaged in from a survey - which is also why the sample is smaller than the board.
4 of the 27 open incident response engineer listings state an annual base range - short of the 5 we require before publishing percentiles. The incident response engineer salary guide reads a rolling 90-day window, which is a wider sample than the roles open today.

About Incident Response Engineer roles
The Incident Response Engineer job market currently shows 26 open positions across 19 hiring companies, according to available data. Of these, 4 roles were posted within the past week, suggesting some ongoing hiring activity in this specialized security function, based on current postings. The companies actively recruiting for Incident Response Engineer talent include Stripe, Wiz, ClickHouse, Perseus, and 1Password, representing a mix of fintech, cybersecurity, and infrastructure-focused organizations. This distribution across a relatively diverse set of 19 employers indicates that demand for incident response expertise is not concentrated in a single sector but spans companies with varying technology and security needs. Regarding compensation, too few current listings disclose a specific pay range to support a reliable median figure for this role at this time. Job seekers interested in understanding potential pay should review individual job listings directly, as employers who do disclose compensation details typically include them within the posting itself. Overall, the data reflects a niche but active segment of the broader cybersecurity and engineering job market, with a modest number of total openings relative to the number of companies hiring, which may suggest that many organizations are seeking to fill one or a small number of incident response positions rather than building out large teams. The presence of well-known technology and security companies among the top hirers suggests that incident response remains a function valued across organizations handling sensitive data, payments, or critical infrastructure. Candidates evaluating opportunities in this space should consult current postings for the most accurate and up-to-date information on role requirements, team structure, and compensation, since the available aggregate statistics are limited to position counts and hiring company activity rather than detailed role specifics.

Candidates should review individual job listings for detailed skill requirements, as aggregate skill statistics are not available at this time.
