The board carries the 120 most recent of 185 open qa engineer roles - the other 65 are in the full member search. 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? 21 of the 47 qa engineer listings that publish a work model came back remote-first, and 5 more are hybrid. The other 138 say nothing either way - that field is one only some boards publish.
Posted pay only - no estimates
What 19 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.

Overall, the data reflects a functioning market with a moderate number of active employers and opportunities, though prospective applicants should consult individual job listings for role-specific details, since aggregate statistics cannot capture the full nuance of each position's requirements or compensation structure.
