AI Jobs Paying $100,000+ (2026)
Every listing on this page states a salary, and the lower end of its range is at least $100,000 a year. That single rule is what makes the hub useful: 98 percent of the roughly 1,700 live listings here are priced in US dollars as of September 2026, against 15 to 20 percent on most other hubs, so the numbers you see are the numbers the employers published. The median midpoint across them is about $206,100.
The floor is modest by AI standards, so the slice runs wide. OpenAI leads with 35 priced listings, followed by Snowflake, Telus Digital, CoreWeave, xAI, Roku and Tenstorrent. Machine learning engineer is the largest category at 463, then data engineer at 179, robotics and embodied AI at 85 and MLOps at 83. Titles range from senior machine learning engineer and senior AI applied scientist to AI compiler engineer, staff firmware engineer for edge ML and engineering manager for ML and data science.
Stated pay is a US habit, and the geography reflects it: 973 of the located listings are in the US and 61 in Canada, with only a scattering elsewhere. Half the hub is flagged remote. Levels are fairly even, with 538 mid level, 410 senior, 348 staff or principal and 308 lead, manager or architect. About 183 new priced listings arrived in the past week.
Because everything is priced, sort by Highest Salary to see the top of the market, or raise the bar to the $150K+, $200K+ or $250K+ hubs, which apply the same rule at a higher floor.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is the $100,000 threshold applied?
A listing appears here when the lower bound of its stated salary range is at least $100,000 a year. TixelJobs extracts the range from the posting text, so roles without a published figure never qualify, however well they pay in practice. As of September 2026 that yields about 1,700 live listings, and 98 percent carry a US dollar figure you can compare directly.
Which companies post the most AI jobs above $100K?
OpenAI has the most, with 35 priced listings as of September 2026, followed by Snowflake, Telus Digital, CoreWeave, xAI, Roku and Tenstorrent. Because salary disclosure is common in US postings and rare elsewhere, 973 of the located roles are in the US and 61 in Canada. Roughly half of the hub is flagged as remote.
Is $100K a typical AI salary?
It is the entry point for this hub, not the middle. The median midpoint of stated ranges here is about $206,100 a year, and the hub spans 538 mid level, 410 senior, 348 staff or principal and 308 lead or manager roles. To see how the market looks above the floor, step up to the AI jobs paying $150K+ or $200K+ hubs, which apply the same rule at a higher minimum.
