Methodology

Current live, classified Solutions Architect opportunities with a 1099, C2C, or W-2 contract engagement in Radar's normalized inventory.

Global current inventory; location and remote status are reported as observed, including unknown values rather than inferring them.

Current counts use Radar liveness; new counts use the first-seen timestamp over rolling 24-hour and seven-day windows.

Compensation includes only structured USD hourly evidence. Ranges use the midpoint; single stated bounds use that bound. Statistics require at least 20 observations.

Listings and source classifications can change after the latest verification; observed postings are not a census of all contract work.
