Every open applied scientist 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? 15 of the 33 applied scientist listings that publish a work model came back remote-first, and 13 more are hybrid. The other 28 say nothing either way - that field is one only some boards publish.
Posted pay only - no estimates
What 16 of these 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 6 levels on this board sit out - fewer than 5 of their listings state a range, and a band drawn off two postings reads like the same fact as one drawn off forty.

About Applied Scientist roles
The Applied Scientist job market currently shows 62 open positions across 35 hiring companies, based on available posting data. With 3 new roles posted this week, hiring activity continues at a measured pace rather than a surge. Compensation data from posted listings indicates a median salary of $248,375, with a 25th percentile of $241,906 and a 75th percentile of $250,750, suggesting a relatively narrow spread in disclosed pay among current postings. This narrow range may reflect consistency in how companies are leveling and compensating Applied Scientist roles at this time, though it is based only on the postings that disclose compensation. Among the companies currently hiring for this role, Faire, Preply, Braze, Outreach, and Aptura AI appear as the top employers according to current listings. The presence of these companies spans consumer technology, education technology, customer engagement, and sales technology sectors, pointing to demand for applied science talent across varied product domains rather than concentration in a single industry niche. With 35 distinct companies represented among 62 total openings, the average number of listings per company is relatively low, which may indicate that most employers are hiring for a small number of specialized roles rather than building out large applied science teams simultaneously. The modest weekly posting volume of 3 new roles suggests a steady rather than rapidly expanding market at this snapshot in time. Job seekers evaluating this market should weigh both the compensation data and the list of active hiring companies, while recognizing that these figures represent a specific point-in-time sample of postings rather than a comprehensive or long-term view of the Applied Scientist field. Those interested in pursuing these roles may benefit from reviewing individual company listings directly for the most current and detailed requirements.
What skills are in demand for Applied Scientist roles?
Based on current postings, companies hiring for Applied Scientist roles span sectors like consumer technology, education, and customer engagement platforms, suggesting demand for applied machine learning and data science expertise adaptable across different product contexts. Specific skill requirements vary by employer, so according to available data, candidates should review individual job listings from companies like Faire, Preply, and Braze for precise technical requirements.
What is the salary range for Applied Scientist positions?
According to available compensation data from current postings, the median salary is $248,375, with a 25th percentile of $241,906 and a 75th percentile of $250,750. This indicates a relatively tight salary band among the listings that disclose compensation, though actual offers may vary by company and experience level.

How competitive is the Applied Scientist job market right now?
With 62 open positions across 35 companies and only 3 new roles posted this week, the data suggests a steady but not rapidly expanding hiring environment. Based on current postings, the relatively low ratio of openings per company may indicate that competition could be meaningful for each individual role, though overall market competitiveness cannot be fully determined from posting volume alone.
