Network Engineer Salary in Spain

Network Engineer pay in Spain: Madrid leads, Barcelona trails

The Spain national median for a network engineer is 96.500 € a year. Among 2 metros with observed data, pay runs from about 64.800 € in Barcelona to 68.900 € in Madrid (1.1×).

Network engineers design, deploy, and maintain the networks that connect systems and users. Common screening skills include Routing, Switching, Firewalls, and TCP/IP.

A modeled national band runs about 65.200 €–134.700 € around that midpoint. Licensing and immigration rules are independent of this cash sort. Employment outlook for the occupation is sketched at +5% over a decade — a national demand guess, not a hiring guarantee in every Spanish city.

Madrid sits -29% vs the national median; Barcelona sits -33%. Relocating inside Spain for this title can move cash more than a small raise at the same desk. Open a city page for take-home and rent context — this national page is the map, not the offer.

Spain shows about 2.7% CPI in 2025. A network engineer raise that trails inflation is a real-pay cut even if it still beats last year’s peers. This occupation is also covered in 39 other countries — useful for remote or relocation shortlists, after FX and local tax.
