Berlin, Munich and Hamburg in the SaaS and scale-up scene pull the range upward (60 to 80 k€); classic Mittelstand and regional locations trend downward (40 to 50 k€). Profiles with SQL plus Python and proven business orientation sit above the median; pure reporting roles in BI tools (Tableau, Power BI) trend below the median. Variable compensation is atypical in this role.
