This is my list of tech-related compensations. I am posting this publicly because I feel it helps folks to understand their options in the industry more, and hopefully also to increase the publicly available datapoints.

The inspiration came from XE’s blog. Why don’t you try it too?

All amounts are yearly. If you’re looking for more detailed info on my roles, you probably wanna check my LinkedIn.
