Have you been in the startup job market recently? 110k EUR seems like the most common baseline I see for high-growth EU startups hiring engineers with a few YoE. I don't work at a hyped finance company but I make north of the range listed above.

Can you recommend sites that have postings for EU startup jobs? I recently received EU citizenship so I'm thinking of making my way over to Europe in the next year or so.

How much is language a barrier for these kinds of jobs? I'm a native speaker of English and think that I can become proficient with French again within 3-6 months of immersion.

I think the best way to find these roles is not to go through job boards at all. Job boards tend not to have the best quality talent, so the best quality jobs don't go there at all. I would say the biggest alpha in getting these jobs is keeping an eye out for routine funding announcements and applying directly via the company's page on Lever. I average around 1-2 recruiter inbound per month for this kind of role.

I see here in Munich 80k as max at well funded startups. Maybe it’s time to move to Netherlands then.

The well paying jobs are the ones at startups funded by US VCs. It's much easier to pay well when you think of EU talent as a 25-50% discount on bay area salaries.
