what would be a typical salary range for 1 year kernel dev + 4-5 years in related experience? let's say BayArea/NY/Austin? I really did like learning about kernel dev before. Might be time to learn again..

I dunno, maybe around $80K-$100K? In expensive cities, more? At FAANG, more still? A lot of kernel hackers work remotely.

Well, it depends on whether or not "4-5 years in related experience" means systems programming or if it means making single-page webapps.
