Editorial process
How we curate roles
Every listing is sourced from employer feeds and hand-reviewed for clarity, compensation, location accuracy, and spam signals before it is surfaced in search.
Titles and locations get normalized so filters stay reliable.
Suspicious redirects or missing companies are flagged and removed.
We rotate fresh roles daily so the feed stays under 7 days old.
Salary insights
Transparency promise
Salary tags blend employer provided ranges with Catalitium estimates. We mark ranges with Est. labels, note any missing data, and never inflate compensation to boost clicks.
Currency harmonized to USD/EUR/GBP/CHF to avoid surprises.
Outliers are reviewed manually before they appear on a card.
Sponsored employers follow the same disclosure and pay rules.
Yes. Remote-friendly AI and ML roles in the EU have grown over 30% year-on-year. Germany, France, the Netherlands, and Spain lead in volume. Use the AI and EU filters together to surface them quickly, and check the salary estimate badge to ensure the range meets your expectations.
How fresh are the job postings?
Listings are refreshed continuously from employer feeds and normalised daily. Each card shows a posted date pill so you can see exactly how old a listing is. Jobs posted within the last 7 days receive a green New badge. Listings older than 30 days receive a May be filled warning.
Do roles include salary estimates?
Yes. Most listings show an Est. salary pill derived from Catalitium's location-based salary database, blended with any employer-disclosed range. Senior and lead roles receive an automatic seniority uplift. If a salary range is genuinely unknown we leave the field blank rather than show a misleading estimate.
What is a ghost job and how do I spot one?
A ghost job is a listing that has been live for 30+ days and is likely already filled, on hold, or was never a real opening. Research suggests up to 40% of active listings at any time are ghost jobs. Catalitium flags every listing older than 30 days with a triangle May be filled badge so you can prioritise your energy on fresh openings.
What are the highest-paying tech roles right now?
AI and ML engineer roles currently command the highest median salaries on Catalitium — around $150k–$200k USD in the US and EUR 100k–EUR 160k in Europe. Principal and Staff Engineer roles come close, followed by senior full-stack and cloud infrastructure engineers. Use the >100k filter to see only high-compensation listings.
How do I negotiate a higher salary offer?
Reference Catalitium's salary data when negotiating: show the employer the market range for your role and region. Studies show engineers who negotiate receive 10–20% more than the initial offer on average. If base salary is fixed, push on equity, signing bonus, remote allowance, and learning budget. See our Salary Negotiation Guide in the Resources section.
Which European cities pay the most for tech?
Zurich and Geneva (Switzerland) consistently top European tech salaries, followed by London, Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris, and Stockholm. Swiss salaries are typically quoted in CHF and translate to EUR 100k–160k for mid-senior roles. London follows at GBP 70k–110k. Berlin and Amsterdam are competitive at EUR 70k–100k for comparable experience levels.
Can I track my job applications on Catalitium?
Yes. Our free Application Tracker lets you move roles through a Kanban pipeline: Applied, Phone Screen, Interview, Offer, and Closed. It requires no account and stores everything privately in your browser. Hit the Track button on any job card to add it. You can also export your full pipeline as a CSV.
How does Catalitium differ from LinkedIn Jobs?
LinkedIn optimises for engagement and premium upgrades. Catalitium is built exclusively for tech candidates who want signal over noise: every listing shows salary estimates, ghost jobs are flagged, AI-powered summaries save you time reading descriptions, and the application tracker replaces the black-hole Easy Apply experience. No premium paywall, no recruiter spam.
Save this search and get a weekly digest of top matches.
Includes salary signal. No spam.
