What its public job board shows

The 7 roles Outlier lists on its public job board post only a ceiling (from up to $8/hr to up to $35/hr, 20 October 2026). A ceiling is the most a posting offers, not what people typically earn, so we leave it out of medians. For comparison, across all platforms the median is $60/hr among postings that state a rate.
