Tech jobs tend to pay well — even if you aren't working at a tech company.

That's according to job site Paysa, which analyzes over 35 million salary data points for over 100,000 companies along with tens of millions of résumés in order to break down the frequency of certain skill sets.

Paysa identified some of the best-paying tech positions that don't require you to work at a top company like Netflix or Google in order to make bank. They pay well regardless of who signs the paycheck.

Paysa uses average pay as a metric instead of median pay in order to reflect the skewed, asymmetric pay data of equity and bonuses. The company groups together data points (including c-suite salaries) collected from job postings to learn which occupations snag the best salaries across the board.

Below, find 10 tech gigs that pay well, no matter where you are.
