Questions

How do you know a company uses Linux?

A company counts when at least one of its open job postings lists Linux as a requirement, not as a nice-to-have. The list is rebuilt every night from the postings on the employers' own careers boards. Staffing agencies, job republishers and the maker of Linux itself are left out.

Which teams hire for Linux?

Of the 1,175 open roles that require it, most are in DevOps and infrastructure (393), backend engineering (157) and hardware engineering (122).

What do Linux roles pay?

66 of the 1,175 roles state the pay. The middle of their posted ranges is $116k a year, converted to US dollars.

Can I download this list?

Yes, through the API: company.getList with technology=Linux and country=DE returns each company's name, website, size, industry and headquarters for 0.02 credits a row (a credit is $0.10). New accounts start with 30 free credits.
