$80k/yr is market for a starter mid-level position in Indianapolis. However, most of the city's talent is C# and JavaScript.

ETA: that's probably the most rigorous interview process I've seen in Indy and seems a bit extra for anything other than a lead.

For us, $80k is regarded as the entry-level starting base. A mid-level that makes it through our process has a much higher starting base.

They say "market-based". It sounds like $80K in Indianapolis or the equivalent in your city.

While also slipping "on-call support" in there too

For what it's worth: The on-call support role is a 1-week obligation that rotates between all of the engineers on the team. As our sixth engineer, each engineer would only be on-call once every 6 weeks.

The role itself consist of being the:

- primary PagerDuty contact for server and application alerts and errors,

- primary contact for our dedicated support team to ask questions and triage new issues,

- primary code reviewer

Note that we do have a dedicated support team that answers emails and calls from our customer base. The on-call engineer is not responsible for that.
