Will levels.fyi ever add tech writer salary data?

Question

Tech writers are present at every FAANG company, in Big Tech at large, and also throughout many other industries. It would be extremely helpful to know what TW salary bands are like across Big Tech but we don't have any such resource. Will Levels ever add tech writer salary info?

Same for UX writer/Content Strategist. I'd say they are equally common at at couple big tech companies, yet only Copywriter data is available.

Definitely planning to – one of our big tasks right now is assembling a taxonomy of all the job roles that are out there in the industry and normalizing it all down to a set that we generalize across most organizations. It's actually a really tough process given all the duplicate titles there are out there for the same set of responsibilities. Once we have that compiled, we'll be able to support and collect salaries for a lot more roles.

That said, it's also helpful if you could help spread the word about our compensation form even today: https://levels.fyi/salaries/add

You can select a custom job category and add your own role and if we get enough submissions, we'll start to create pages for them!

Great post! I'm eagerly awaiting this data and I know it can be tough to normalize all the different role names but generally you're going to have Senior/Staff/Lead and variations of those.
