Too few of these roles publish a salary for a reliable benchmark. Where a figure is quoted it appears on the listing, and contract day rates are annualised so they can be compared against permanent salaries.
On working pattern, 100% are fully remote. By seniority, 58% at mid level and 25% at senior level. Filter by any of these on the left.
Employers hiring for Linux in this slice most often ask for it alongside JavaScript, PHP, Python, Docker, Java and SQL. 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 remote Linux jobs in the UK are there right now?
We are tracking 67 live vacancies across 32 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.
Are these contract or permanent roles?
Every role here that states a basis is permanent. Contract vacancies are listed separately.
Which employers are hiring?
The most active right now are Remotefriendly, Pubmatic, Affdragons, Spire and Mksk. 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 JavaScript, PHP, Python, Docker and Java. 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.
Are there entry-level or graduate Linux developer jobs in the UK?
1 of the roles on this page read as graduate or junior level, which is 1% 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 Application Developer, Lead, Senior Software Engineer I (Java), Developer (Front-end) - Remote or London, UK, Developer (Back-end) - London, UK and Knowledge of web hosting, VPS, Linux, or developer tools. 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 (58% 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.
