We are currently tracking 81 live vacancies matching permanent Linux jobs in the UK, advertised by 52 different employers. 15 of them were first seen in the last seven days. The most active employers in this slice are Mainframemaster, Cyanapse, Turleyway and Imegamedia. Every role is detected on the employer's own careers page rather than reposted from another board, so what you see here is the vacancy as the employer wrote it.

Of the 81 roles, 65 publish a salary. The median advertised ceiling is £65,000. The middle half of the market sits between £40,000 and £97,250, so anything above the upper figure is a genuinely strong offer for permanent Linux jobs in the UK. Contract day rates are annualised at 230 working days a year, so permanent and contract pay compare like for like.

On working pattern, 20% are fully remote and 36% are hybrid. By seniority, 67% at mid level and 15% at senior level. Filter by any of these on the left.

Employers hiring for Linux in this slice most often ask for it alongside Python, AWS, JavaScript, SQL, Google Cloud and Docker. That co-occurrence is counted from the live listings on this page, not from a fixed list, so it moves with the market.

Questions about these roles

How many permanent Linux jobs in the UK are there right now?

We are tracking 81 live vacancies across 52 employers. The crawler revisits employer careers pages continuously and roles disappear from this page as soon as they come down, so the count reflects what is genuinely open today.

What do permanent Linux jobs in the UK pay?

The median advertised ceiling is £65,000, based on the 65 of these roles that publish a figure. The middle half of the market runs from £40,000 to £97,250. Contract day rates are annualised so they compare against permanent salaries.

Can these roles be done remotely?

20% are advertised as fully remote and 36% as hybrid. The rest are on-site or do not say — where an employer is silent we leave it blank rather than guessing.

Which employers are hiring?

The most active right now are Mainframemaster, Cyanapse, Turleyway, Imegamedia and Thisisiceberg. Every vacancy links straight to that employer's own careers page — we are an aggregator, not the hiring company, and there is no middleman between you and the application.

What other skills do these roles ask for?

Most often Python, AWS, JavaScript, SQL and Google Cloud. That is counted from the live adverts on this page rather than a fixed list, so it tracks what employers are asking for this month.

How much does a Linux developer earn in the UK?

£65,000 is the middle of what is advertised here, which is 18% above the £55,000 median across UK IT as a whole. Read it as the ceiling an employer is advertising towards rather than an offer: 16 of these adverts name no figure at all, and those are the ones where asking early is worth most.

Can you work from home as a Linux developer in the UK?

45 of the 81 live adverts here offer home working in some form — 16 fully remote and 29 hybrid. Fully remote means the advert states no office requirement; hybrid means it names a split.

Are there entry-level or graduate Linux developer jobs in the UK?

5 of the roles on this page read as graduate or junior level, which is 6% of what is live. Level is read from the job title, so a role advertised without one is counted as mid-level and may still be open to less experience.

What job titles are used for this role?

Employers on this page advertise it as Network Engineer, Senior Software Engineer C++ Posted 2 years ago, Senior Full Stack PHP Developer, Junior Web Developer and Front-End Web App Developer. Searching one wording and not another is the most common way people miss vacancies, which is why this page groups them.

How much experience do these roles need?

The largest group is mid level (67% of the page). Seniority is read from the job title, so a role that does not signal a level in its title is counted as mid-level.
