Every major company hiring right now:

Willingness to work with AI

Inkscape:

Absolutely NO Generative AI to be used in applying to these jobs, programming, writing documentation, issue summarising or testing processes.

I'm loving this

Damn that's pretty good! (Outside the US I mean.)

Presumably this would be a bit higher actually since it's contract work, not full time.

Best I could find is: https://www.salary.com/research/company/software-freedom-conservancy-inc-salary

I am almost tempted to apply for the debugging thing. I love using inkscape, I am quite fonding of (code) debugging and I really like this application announcement lol.

I would have loved to apply, but it is too late to start doing Gtk4 from now, for this.
