Salary bands for the 91 roles Hermeus has open right now, by role family and location. Where a posting states a range we show it verbatim; otherwise the band is a SpaceNexus estimate — the same bands that appear on Hermeus's listings. How the estimates are made.
Hermeus's median band midpoint of $118k sits 18% below the SpaceNexus industry benchmark of $144k — the median across 58 curated space-industry roles, US base salary, as of 2026-08. Mix matters: an employer hiring mostly technicians will sit below a benchmark weighted toward engineers, and vice versa.
Titles are clustered into families (a "Senior Propulsion Engineer" and a "Turbomachinery Lead" both land in Propulsion). The band is the median of the family's listings.
