What the posts show
Patterns we saw across the posts above. Each one comes from the rows, not from a survey.
- Most US posts sit between $120K and $200K. Founding roles at seed startups post the same band, and add equity (RamAIn states 0.30%–1.20%).
- Base vs OTE matters. Only one post quotes on-target earnings (meritt: $120K–$140K base, $180K–$200K OTE). Four more label their range as base; the rest do not say.
- Clay is the tool named most often across the posts we read, followed by n8n, Apollo, HubSpot and Zapier.
- India posts that state pay are agency and list-building roles at ₹3–12 LPA. Startup GTM engineer roles in India mostly hide pay; use the Levels.fyi India median (on the role guide) for those.
Cross-check with self-reported pay
Job posts show what employers offer; self-reported data shows what people say they earn. The GTM Engineer guide has both:
- United States: median $140K · Levels.fyi, Go-To-Market Engineer, US
- India: median ₹31.9 LPA · Levels.fyi, Go-To-Market Engineer, India
- Europe: United Kingdom: median £142K · Levels.fyi, Go-To-Market Engineer, UK
How to negotiate a GTM Engineer offer
What to ask for before you sign, based on how these posts are written.
- Ask whether the range is base or OTE, and what share of OTE the last person in the role hit. A $200K OTE with $60K commission is a $140K job in a bad quarter.
- Show the pipeline you built, not the tools. A before/after (reply rate, meetings booked, hours saved) is the strongest anchor in this role.
- At a seed startup, trade cash for equity only with the numbers: share count, strike price, last valuation and vesting.
- In India, ask if you will work for US clients and in US hours. Agency roles that do should not price at local SDR rates.
