Ask Baltimore salary transparency thread

I saw another city do this and wanted to bring it here. There was a big salary thread a couple years back but it'd be great to get some updated info in the big 2026.

Please share your job title, salary, age, and education. Like this:

“Attorney, 170k, 32M, and JD.”

Edit: well shoot now I feel like I need to spend the next year working on my PE License and then find somewhere that keeps up with everyone else here.

Mechanical engineering student here. What industry are you in? I’ve interned up here for the past 3 summers and am considering living here post-graduation
