The salaries I'm hearing are $80,000-$110,000 for that experience level. At venture backed startups.

Really? I can't find any companies willing to offer me anything better than $50,000 with NO benefits. I have five years of professional experience (three at startups) in pretty diverse stuff (C, Ruby, PHP, Erlang, full-stack web dev, system administration, scaling... etc.)

Where are you located?

Sorry, I should have mentioned I'm looking for remote work primarily, though I have applied to many local non-startups. I'm currently in New England, but previously lived and worked in San Francisco at venture-backed startups.

Where are you sending your resume? As a VC funded start-up in San Francisco we see lots of resumes, just not lots of great ones. And so we pay. $140k base for most positions. And we're open to telecommuting and relo. Its just even harder to find remote engineers then local ones. If your interested, ping me ;)

I'm looking for (preferably) remote work. If you have an interesting project, I am interested. :)

As I mentioned in the other comment, I used to live/work in SF. I'd ping you, but I need some contact info!

EDIT: Are you triggit.com? I also know quite a bit about advertising/marketing (CPM, CPA, CPC, PPV, affiliate, incentive, etc.) and I'd love to work with it again.
