Hiring in Hyderabad: what the numbers mean
The deepest role pools in Hyderabad are DevOps & SRE, QA & SDET and Frontend Engineer. Deep pools give you choice; the harder searches are usually in roles where the pool is thin and the pay spread is wide.
Among individual-contributor and functional roles, the highest median pay in Hyderabad is for Product Manager (₹23 LPA), Customer Success (₹15 LPA) and Marketing (₹12.8 LPA).
Use the middle-half range, not the median alone, when you set a budget: the strongest candidates in a role usually sit in the upper half of the range, and they are the ones with competing offers.

About this data
- Source: HyrEzy's candidate database, snapshot taken 20 September 2026. 7,07,237 profiles were considered; 1,26,358 of them record a current CTC.
- Pay is the current CTC a candidate recorded, in ₹ lakh per annum. It is not offer data. Values below ₹1.5 LPA or above ₹250 LPA are excluded as entry errors.
- Roles are matched on current job title, so "Data Engineer" means people whose current title says so. The pool covers product companies, services companies and enterprises.
- Expected hike compares expected with current CTC, counting only expectations between 0.8 and 3 times current pay.
- Privacy: we publish only aggregates. Any group with fewer than 30 CTC records is not shown for pay, and fewer than 10 profiles is not shown at all. No individual can be identified.
- Notice periods are not reported: imported profiles often store a default value when notice is missing, which makes the field unreliable in aggregate.
Hiring against these numbers?
HyrEzy shortlists 5–8 candidates scored against your JD and validated by a recruiter, with CTC and expectations confirmed before you interview. Zero retainer; you pay only on a successful hire.
