By level, the median runs junior at $150K, middle at $159K, senior at $202K, lead at $235K, and head+ at $305K. The step from junior to head+ is worth about 2x on median pay. Figures are gross annual amounts converted to US dollars, so roles in different currencies stay comparable.
- **The market right now** — Text: Alion currently lists 276 open Biotech and Life Sciences Salary in Durham from 42 companies. 43 of them were posted or refreshed in the last seven days. 40 of the employers have posted something in the last three months, which is the pool worth watching if you are starting a search now. 1 of the 276 carries the marks of a stale or abandoned posting - open far beyond the usual time to fill, reposted, or on a board that mostly never closes a role - and is marked as likely inactive; the list can hide them. Every listing links straight to the employer, so you apply on their own board rather than through an intermediary.
- **Where the work is** — Text: The largest concentrations of these roles are United States (55), Canada (4), Philippines (2), India (1), and Germany (1). 25% of the listings are fully remote and a further 11% are hybrid, so a large part of this market is open to you regardless of where you live.

Each company page on Alion carries its size, funding stage, tech stack and every other position it has open, so you can judge the employer before you spend an evening on the application.
- **What employers ask for** — Text: Reading across the current listings, the tools that come up most often are GMP (72), GCP (46), CAPA (29), Python (27), Good Clinical Practice (20), Machine Learning (19), Agile (15), and LIMS (15). The counts are how many of these openings name each one, which is a better guide to what is actually being hired for than a generic skills list.
- **Relocation, visas and equity** — Text: Of the current Biotech and Life Sciences Salary in Durham, 1 states visa sponsorship, 21 offer a relocation package, and 48 include equity. These are filters on the list above, so you can narrow it to the ones that make a move possible for you.
