Have you been in the startup job market recently? 110k EUR seems like the most common baseline I see for high-growth EU startups hiring engineers with a few YoE. I don't work at a hyped finance company but I make north of the range listed above.

I see here in Munich 80k as max at well funded startups. Maybe it’s time to move to Netherlands then.

Can you recommend sites that have postings for EU startup jobs? I recently received EU citizenship so I'm thinking of making my way over to Europe in the next year or so.

How much is language a barrier for these kinds of jobs? I'm a native speaker of English and think that I can become proficient with French again within 3-6 months of immersion.
