Hi everyone,

I’m an embedded systems engineer based in Europe, and I’m exploring the idea of working in the United States, especially in the automotive or aerospace sectors (cars, aircraft, avionics, etc.).

I’m curious about what kind of salaries embedded engineers in the U.S. are earning these days — particularly those working on systems related to vehicles or aircraft.

If you’re in this field, I’d really appreciate it if you could share: • Your base salary (and any bonuses, stock, etc.) • Your years of experience • Any thoughts on work-life balance, job satisfaction.

No need to go into super personal detail — even rough ranges or general insights would help a lot.

Thanks in advance! 🙏
