The metro comes from the WORKSITE address on the filing, not the employer’s headquarters, so a company based elsewhere appears here when it places someone in San Diego, CA. This page exists only because the cut clears 15 disclosed positions across 3 employers; combinations below that floor are not published at all. National wages for Software Developers.
