Methodology

SOC 15-1252 / 15-1256 (Software Developers / Engineers) and 15-1254 (Web Developers), covering client-side, design-system, and UI-platform engineering roles. Only certified LCAs are counted (Denied and Withdrawn filings are excluded). Wages are annualized where filed in hourly, weekly, biweekly, or monthly units. Range wages are collapsed to the midpoint before annualizing. Employer names are grouped by a suffix-stripped normalization so "Google LLC" and "GOOGLE LLC" collapse to one row.
