Junior, mid-level, senior, staff, principal and lead: fewer than 50 roles at each level state pay, so no median is shown.

Each stated range counts as its midpoint, and a single figure or a one-sided "from" or "up to" amount as that figure, in US dollars a year. The median is taken over the roles that state pay and never estimated for the rest.
